Hey guys!
Just looking to get some answers as to what you guys would do given my situation and some advice for myself.
Currently, I am a senior and going to graduate after this fall semester with a BA in psychology. I was previously a bio major aiming to go to medical school but, had some issues come up and fell off the wagon deciding to not pursue an MD. 2 years later I am now looking to get back into the medical field after many discussions with doctors and other students. My main reason being that I was born with club foot and feel that I want to give back to the younger children that are born with similar conditions that I can relate with. So bottom line - I have all prereqs except for one year of organic chem and one year of physics. My questions are as follows:
1. Since I am graduating I will not be able to take the year of physics and o chem during my undergraduate career, would you guys advise taking the classes at my undergrad university or would a CC in my hometown be acceptable?
2. Should I consider a post bacc program or would doing the above be satisfactory?
3. Would psych research be OK for podiatry school or should I consider doing some research that pertains more towards the biological sciences?
Thanks for reading this post and I hope that you guys have some advice for myself as I get back into the medical world and can enjoy the ability to treat and help others!
