Is a bachelor's of nursing a pre med major?

Answer 1

Yes, it is a good major for pre-med students. I am a pre-med student and getting my BSN. Pre-med students can major in anything, including music, religion, english, math, etc. Many students major in Biological Sciences, but it is not required to get into Medical School. The good thing with getting your BSN is you can become a Nurse and get your clinical experience for Med School, because they want clinical experience and good MCAT scores, so you have to balance it out. One thing is that you have to take pre-reqs that Med Schools require while you are doing BSN. So you have to think carefully before deciding to get your BSN, because you have to take nursing courses and at the same time you have do pre-reqs for Med School, and remember Pre-med and Nursing is totally differents majors. If can devote your time, then you should do BSN and pre-medical pre-reqs.

Answer 2

First, there is no such thing as a degree in pre-med. It is a curriculum layout or sometimes known as a track, that prepares students who intend to seek admission to medical schools. It includes activities such as prerequisite coursework, clinical experience, volunteer activities, and research.

While many individuals who pursue a career as a physician major in Biology at the undergraduate level, many others come from a variety of other educational backgrounds. You should meet with a career counselor at the college or university you attend for what options exist for you. The important issue is acquiring the appropriate prerequisites required for medical school. The student should have a strong background in the following areas.

• Biology (cell biology, biology of the organism)
• Chemistry (inorganic, organic)
• Physics
• Communication (written and oral)
• Higher level math's
• Computer literacy
• Development of good critical thinking skills.
