HOW CAN I BECOME A ER TRAVEL NURSE?
My name is Kiana, a 17-year-old senior and my dream career is to be an ER travel nurse. I have not yet fully applied to any colleges because I am unsure of where to even start in order to enter that field. I was once told I would be required to take prerequisites in order to get into nursing school, but I am unsure how. Can you provide any suggestions and advice, such as what the first thing I should do in order to pursue that career path, and what to do after that?

What courses should I take in High School in order to get into Medical School? What Advice would you give to an 10th grader that wants to get into the medical field? Could I get a Volunteer Job at a Pharmacy, Medical Office, or a Hospital at 14-15?
I am M/15 I recently got into high school and gets good grades as I achieved high honors. I have been consistent at math, getting 100 in geometry, 93 and above in science and over 93s in all classes including the 5 100s I have. My GPA is a 96-98 average, and I would say I am one of the smartest in the class if not the smartest in Geometry. I study Chemistry in my free time, and I am taking Living Enviromint, but my teacher teaches Biology. Some of the smartest kids in Senior classes come back to my science teacher and thank him. I take chemistry next year and my schedule is full, I don't have any lunch breaks nor any free periods. I have 2 options currently, I used to want to be an engineer and I am actually really good, I fix electronics for a living and help my school with problems. I got offered to be an Intern too at my high school, but since technology changes quick and new certificates come out fast, I don't think it would be good. The medical field is still and barely changes. I Really want to volunteer but have no clue how at 15. Also, What is some procedures/ Classes I should take in Highschool to make it into medical or pharmacy school faster? Thank you!

What career other than vet could someone with an interest in animals/healthcare pursue?
I’m an 11th grader. I’ve wanted to be a veterinarian since I was 5. I’ve taken all the classes I believed were useful for my career and am in a program for aspiring medical professionals. However I’m having doubts now as many vets say that it’s an under appreciated job with high stress that you shouldn’t go into if you “just like animals” (the main reason I wanted to enter the field) I’m feeling a bit lost now. I considered becoming a paramedic but I was told it was a high-stress, low-pay job. What other careers could I pursue?
