Don't do it man I did it and it's awful.

It makes you a special kind of dead-inside person surrounded by the sick and deranged for which there is no cure and also patients that are pretty fucked.

Don't believe the hype, a moderately paid desk job doing excel sheets is not so bad after all.

I'm specializing in sports medicine and want to be a practicing non-surgeon orthopedist. I have a few ins within the field and can probably work with D-1 athletes fresh out of school.

I recommend that you don't major in Biology and instead major in something practical or something that will improve your critical thinking skills. It's quite easy to get your pre med reqs out of the way.

I have two degrees already, a BA in Philosophy and a BS in Biochemistry. I was also considering going gen med instead of biology at the rec of my adviser.

Why in the hell do you need a BS in Biology then.?Just study for the MCAT and get in.

There are some prereqs I need that I never took while getting my biochem degree and my adviser said I might as well just get another degree since it will cover the credentials and give me a different GPA based on that degree.

Wow the patients aren't that bad.

It's medical training itself that is shit.
