Discussion on nursing degree then going to medical school
Check out the above thread for my full response in the past. Just so you know, there is no such thing as a "pre-med" major. You can major in anything, as long as you take all the pre-med courses required for medical school.
After medical school, you'd need to complete a residency program in whichever field you want to specialize in. You do get paid while in a residency program (but not much), and for psychiatry, residency programs take 4 years to complete.
