I'm 24 years old and just started my first year of undergrad. I'm pre-med, and the specialty I'm most interested in is neurosurgery. I know, I know, it's very early for me to be thinking about specialties. I get it. But I'm obsessive.
Anyways, one of the things I'm concerned about is my age. Even if everything goes perfectly according to plan, considering the length of schooling, I would be 39 years old before I could start practicing. I was wondering how abnormal this is.
So to the attendings out there: how old were you when you finally started practicing?
