32 and creeping up on 33. 😱Amy B said:You must have read my mind. That is what I was doing 👍 We older folks have special mind abilities.

25 now ... won't be 28 *fingers crossed* till I apply for med school!!!
I started med school at 31 with a hubby & daughter. 🙂
I'm 30, will be 32 by the time I can get in if things work out 🙂
started MD at 31
Aug 12 I'll be 43.
Since I won't even finish my bs untill 07 I'll be content with PA. I got my act together late in life and realized that there was no short-cut to making something of value of one's life. My wife and I have adjusted to one paycheck so I can go to school fulltime and get my masters in PA done in the next 5 years after about three years of pt school. The Army National Guard will be reimbursing my tuition and giving me GI bill stipend. If I don't go to Iraq, I can just make it.
I'm starting on my medical track with EMT classes this fall, an undergraduate degree in Medical Lab Science by 07 (have the cr to apply in SP 05). I've got a few more "fertillizer" classes like Government and History but then it's all science from there.
Sure glad I lived this long, but regret not living it until now. I envy anyone in a position to go to med school.

Geez.
I hope that I'm not the oldest one here. Thats a distinction I can easily do without.
Besides, it's not the years, it's the mileage. Oh, wait.... No, it's the years.

Thanks, you too. I hope the CoS cuts you loose so you can go to medical school.
Remember, it's never too late to become what you should have been!

I hope so too! I like that quote, although I wouldn't have been able to identify it like ScubaDoc 🙂

I must admit, I saw it on someones sig on oldpremeds and thought it was terrific.
MoosePilot said:
There is this old cemetery in Charleston that is sandwiched next to these two old churches. Out front is a sign that changes periodically. Someone with a disturbed sense of humor actually put that quote up there a couple of months ago....all I could think was, well actually, it may be too late for them....

good attitude!
I'll be applying at 24. Don't worry, I'll let myself out 😀
Nub, please stay. I need someone to fetch my walker...😀
I'll be 32 if I get in this cycle. Before I graduate (with my DO/Ph.D 😀), my oldest will be entering college. 😱

Now, do the rest of you feel better?
