Ok so here is my story... I'm 25 years old and will soon be graduating from Heritage College with my Associates of Occupational Studies in X-Ray Medical Technician. After graduation I plan on sitting for the Medical Assistant Certification Exam along with the Virginia Limited Scope X-Ray Certification Exam. I have landed a great job as a Medical Assistant for a new Urgent Care not far from my house. I plan on working for about a year after graduation then going back to school to further my education.

So my question is with my with my background as a Medical Assistant should I shoot for becoming a Physician's Assistant or a Nurse Practicer and what kind of school am I looking at for each one? Please someone Help I have less than a year to figure this out.

Thanks.
