Like my brother's g/f. She's known since she was 5 she wanted to be a doctor And to make it more interesting, she wants to be a neurologist. She thinks that when she finishes her 2 years of residency, she'll be a neurologist. I've tried to explain to her that after the becomes a plain-jane MD, she will have another 3-4 years training for her discipline. After that she'll join a group, and be a "lower-level" Dr. in the group. She is taking organic chemistry this fall, so we'll see how her dream does fares after that weed-out class. My mom, who graduated as a Med Tech from UNL said she hated that class, and it was harder then anything she's ever fathomed.
