In the subject line is a common theme among some of my older students. Just wondering if anyone has any words of wisdom or constructive truths that may benefit this group? (Age range varies.)

I would have ask, where is the student really coming from this? Is it someone just have momentary weakness, tiredness, feeling not up to par with siblings or reaching parental expectations, a long term struggling "mediocre" student who is nearly OCD about medicine? What are the student's motivation, commitment, concerns?
... While we can make general comments of marathon not sprint or age is just a number, its really why the student is feeling like a loser beyond just old
Why the hell would you be upset? I didn't start medical school until 29 and it was awesome because I got to enjoy all of my 20s rather than throwing them away in a lecture hall. I traveled, I loved, I lost, I worked a bunch of different jobs, I grew the **** up. I honestly can't think of a better way I could have done this.
It's all in how you perceive your journey dude, just look at all the good things you've done and been through that would never have happened if you'd gone straight through via the traditional route.
