How to answer the question "Why Medicine, not nursing?" at medical school interviews

How to answer the question "Why medicine and not nursing?" at your medical school interview by Dr. James O'Donovan MBBS, MRes, former AFP Doctor at Cambridge University, UK, former Kennedy Scholar at Harvard and current Clarendon Scholar at The University of Oxford. This is a very difficult question, which comes up time and time again. I suggest that you try and develop your own personal answer, by drawing upon your work experience and above all - be honest. Most importantly, make sure you do not offend the nursing profession! Nurses are a very important and valuable member of the MDT and you will rely on them hundreds of times during your carer as a doctor! If you have any questions or comments please post them below the video and I will respond to these.
