I graduated in B.S. Nursing yet i am not happy with my profession.. i studied this course since it had a lot of opportunity to work in some countries of your choice with a high salary..but sadly there was an overproduction of nurses since it became a trend.. now I'm still applying for a job..I really wanted to go to med school since that is my dream (even when i was a child)..I'm planning to enroll next school year..my parents are supportive..but im having doubts thinking of the practicality..i feel that I'd be a burden to my parents..i need to be enlightened..

I see that you're still young. And still have the future in front of you. If it's really your dream to be a doctor, then go ahead and pursue it. You already have a plus, that your parents are supportive of you. Don't let your nursing degree stop you from taking up an additional course in medicine. Think of it as having completed your back up career first!

Becoming a doctor would need your total commitment and some money to back you up. I see that the passion is there, but, you also have to consider your finances. It would be good, though, in the end if you are able to go to med school. If your parents could manage maybe 10 years of support, then, you could go. And, it is a plus that they are supportive of your plans.
