Answer 2

Consider going to a community college 2 nights a week for a semester to get an Emergency Medical Technician qualification. After you get your license you can work 1-2 24 hour shifts a week. And you can study or sleep between calls. The hourly rate is not that great but you can do at least one 24 hour shift a week while going to school. As well, med schools will look at this a lot better as it means you will have experience in life or death situations. That you have already been exposed to the messy side of medicine and if you can handle being an EMT, you are a good candidate for medical school. It has been known that EMTs in med school are often steered into the ER. As well you can get an extra dollar an hour in most places if you get a qualification to drive the rig. And if you do not get into med school, then you can take the full paramedic program which will give you something you can actually make a living doing. My daughter got her EMT-B ticket while a senior in college and it made the difference in getting a fellowship. In DC she is seen as an expert in first responder safety in her chosen field of transportation. As well, she says the rush you get riding in an ambulance with lights and siren going is as good as sex.
