Nursing vs. Physician Assistant at Cal

<p>So I officially am now a Cal Student! Going to Berkeley in the fall, and majoring in biochemistry- I originally wanted to go the premed path.. HOWEVER, I am now rethinking that because of the competition, money etc. I still want to stay in medicine, but I realized that I'll be happy being a nurse or physician assistant.. I guess my question is what should I major in, and if I want to be a PA I've heard you need a couple of years of experience so does that mean that I cant get into PA school after getting my bachelors? Should I just go the nursing path?
If I want to go into nursing, is there a specific nursing major at Cal? </p>

<p>There are not specific undergraduate majors for medicine / pre-med, nursing, dentistry, etc. at Berkeley.</p>
