Hi y’all.

So I took the MCAT in May and underperformed substantially relative to my target. This plus some planned PTO from work really shook loose a lot of my commitment to this path given my age and interests. I know this can be a personal question, but I’ve tried reading books, blogs, podcasts and parents and I still struggle with my thoughts on it now.

I view this time as critical so I can either revamp my studying for the next MCAT and cycle, or gifs up the ghost entirely and pursue another career.

I can give specs on my background in a personal message, but I am about to turn 30 and look to start a family soon so these are all weighing on me heavily.

Looking forward to talking to some of you soon!

Nontraditional anesthesia resident, happy to help!
 
Non-trad MS3 here. Currently age 39. MASSIVELY underperformed on my MCAT and still got into a top MD. Reach out anytime.
 
It seems you've gotten a lot of support, but feel free to reach out here too -- I'm 27, non-trad M1 at a USMD school, reinventor, and currently pregnant :)
