What would you say is the "safest" occupation in the United States today?

21. My younger daughter is thinking about medical school

With RN as backup. We have a local program that has 15 month accelerated option that works well after doing a B.A. in Biochemistry. Two years of the B.A. in Biochemistry can be done while still in High School. My high school sophomore daughter is taking a CNA course this summer to start the process. Her next two years of High School will be mostly college courses.

You can justify the B.A. because of the access to the 15 month R.N. program. I am not sure you can get an R.N. in this state with anything less than about the equivalent of a B.A./B.S. anyway. I would be very uncomfortable about my daughter's options with only a B.A. Biochemistry otherwise. My daughter is very interested in the healthcare field, and she will have plenty of time to assess that interest if she can get hours as a CNA while still in high school.
