Medicine or nursing for coming USA?

[Willowwww]

My goal is to come to the USA. For this purpose, would it be more advantageous for me to study nursing or medicine in Turkey?

Yo, that's a tough choice you're facing there between nursing and medicine for trying to get over to the USA. Both can definitely be solid paths, but there are some key differences to consider.

On the nursing side, the demand for nurses in the US is super high right now, so it can be a bit easier to find job opportunities and get your foot in the door. The education is also a bit quicker and more affordable compared to becoming a full-blown doctor.

But with medicine, you're obviously going to be making a lot more cash in the long run as a physician. The status and prestige of being a doctor also can't be beat. Plus, you'll have way more autonomy and leadership opportunities.

The main downside is that the path to becoming a doctor is a lot more grueling - you're looking at a solid 4 years of med school on top of your undergrad. And the competition to get into US med schools as an international student can be super fierce.

Ultimately, it comes down to what your long-term goals and priorities are. Do you want to maximize your earnings potential? Or are you more focused on getting over to the US and establishing yourself quickly?

Personally, I'd say if you're dead-set on the US, nursing might be the way to go. The job outlook is amazing, and it can be an easier transition as an international student. But if you've got your heart set on being a doctor, it's definitely worth exploring that path too.

Either way, you're gonna have to do some serious research on the specific requirements, costs, and admission odds for international students in both fields. Talk to advisors, look at stats, and really weigh the pros and cons.

It's a big decision, but I'm confident you can make it work, my man. Just gotta put in the work and hustle hard. Wishing you all the best with whatever you decide!

Medical licenses can be hard to transfer, and take a long time to get. I know a Romanian doctor who married a US citizen but she was never able to practice in the US

[Willowwww]

So is nursing easier?

[slatyb]

There is a huge nursing shortage here, and it's probably easier to get licensed as a nurse than a doctor. There should be plenty of information online.

[AI Opinion]

Both nursing and medicine are excellent fields with strong demand in the USA. Choosing between them depends on your interests and long-term goals. Studying medicine offers more specialization options and potentially higher salaries, but requires more years of education and training. Nursing provides quicker entry into the workforce and often offers more flexibility in career paths. Consider the time commitment and financial aspect, as well as your passion for patient care and your willingness to study for extended periods. Both fields will provide valuable skills and opportunities in the USA.

According to your profile, your location is :United States;why you ask this question, are you fake?

[Willowwww]

I would not want to share my country information. But i live in Turkey

[Cheerfull009]

You have informed all users , that you are from Turkey

[shortster]

Nursing, we have a shortage of nurses

[Willowwww]

Someone said me that you dont want me in there. Is it true? Is there racism in USA that much

[shortster]

I think that the current problem is the excessive amount of illegal immigrants. But if you come here legally and assimilate to the American culture you will be more than welcome.

Go away, we don't want you, never come back

[HoldingtheSword]

I hate Turks, Chinese and all other filth, don't come to the USA

[HoldingtheSword]

The USA is ours, we white people, there is no room in the USA for scum like you.

[Willowwww]

I will come in there and conquer the USA☺️

[HoldingtheSword]

You are not wanted in the US, we do not want you. If you want to conquer the US, try this, but be aware that special forces will finish you off before you even cross the border.
