[quote=Anonymous]Nursing and pre-med students are very different. Pre-med students who ace the MCAT and succeed in Med School tend to be better at hard science, can absorb dense information, are highly competitive on an academic level, and viewed as the traditional academic high achiever. They need to be ambitious to stick through med school and a 5-10 years of residencies and fellowships. Nursing students may be very smart but the program is less academically rigorous so it doesn't require the same abilities. Nursing tend to attract more students with people skills. Medical students may have people skills but these skills are not developed or rewarded. A med student wouldn't drop out and become a nurse. They would probably wind up in research, public health policy, or biotech. [/quote]
