Hello all, new to the forum, so if there's already a thread pertaining to my question, please let me know!
I'm finishing up my first year at college at 22 yo, on a pre-med track. I was an enlisted military wife (Marines) for 4 years, so in general I'm familiar with certain aspects of the military life. I'm now going through a divorce and will be a single parent of two with little to no support from him. However, I decided to not let the situation get in the way of my dream of becoming a doctor (at this point, I'm unsure what specialty I would like to pursue), and I've been doing a lot of research into various medical schools and scholarships and whatnot. Before I became pregnant so young, I had intended on joining the military in some capacity, so I feel like this would be a "happy medium," so to speak. I was wondering if anyone had any advice/experience to share with the pros and cons of each option.
Thanks!
