Differences between MD and a degree in nursing
I'm worried that my GPA will be a major set back for me this cycle, being a 3.4. I'm currently a year away from graduating with an honours in Biology at a Canadian institution and i'm thinking about back-up programs to apply to. I've given nursing and biomedical engineering a lot of thought.. a part of me would even like to pursue both at once.
I'm mainly interested in nursing because I want to learn about human physiology, anatomy and put the art of treating the human body to practice,...

LOR Dilemmas
I know it's about time to ask for LORs but I'm having some major issues.
I don't have any science professors to ask. All my science courses I took Freshman year and I'm sure none of them remember me. I'm a biomedical engineering major, I could ask one professor who taught a 'biology' sort of class (we learned about the brain in detail, some math thrown in but mostly pure bio) and another who I took two lab courses with, would that work? I don't know what other option I have...I...
