AIR FORCE: Enlisted to eventual Nursing Career.?

I am new to this. I am concidering going into the Air Force. I need to get a grasp on my life.

My main goal is to become a Pediatrician. I figure after I enlist in the Air Force, I can get aid to continue my education. I was thinking of trying to do Aerospace Medical Apprentice or Physician Assistant but I am unsure of the qualifications behind it.

I was wondering if it would be an easier transition to go to College and leave with my RN then join the Airforce to help pay for Med School and possibly get reimbersed some of my money from college. Or to go in as soon as possible, with the intentions to continue my education. I really feel like I shouuld just go in today. To push myself to become a better person and serve this beautiful country.

Anyway. I would love your opinions on which is better and the benifits of my choices. Thanks so much!

:)

    have you ever concept a pair of occupation in intelligence? You get to do a lot of public speaking (briefing) and that's a tricky, rewarding occupation. maximum, if not all bases go with intel analysts so vacationing could be a probable danger, additionally. the college is between 4-6 months long and there are various diverse AFSC's contained in the intel occupation field. that's large education that could transition you right into a worthwhile activity contained in the civilian international, to boot. reliable luck!

    If you go in with your RN i believe youll go in at a higher rank,and you can possibly get a bonus...i would personally get my rn first....because....you only get a certain amount of money through the GI bill....and youll need it more for med school than you will for your RN
