Hey all,
I am currently in the Navy as a Corpsman and currently I am in lab tech c school. I already have a bachelors but I need some pre reqs for med school. I have about 4 years left on my contract so I know this is a little early in the game to be talking about HPSP unless I get a conditional release to attend medical school. I am planning on taking the pre reqs when I get to my next duty station after I get approved for TA. Also I plan on taking the MCAT too.
My question is... what would your advice be for someone who wants to become a doctor in the Military while currently enlisted and how would you go about it?
How soon should someone apply for the scholarship before med school?
Should I finish my time in the Navy and try to go in another branch? If you guys could give me advice I would really appreciate it.
Thanks
