I've been a member of this board for several months now. I have read countless stories of people who decide later on in life how they want to pursue medical school, and need to go back into a post-bacc program or whatever in order to catch up on all requisite coursework. I have heard so much about people wanting to go to med school and having the desire, but I have rarely (if ever) on this board heard of someone actually getting in after being a non-trad. This is not a knock on this board or anybody in it. But the other day I realized that I've heard more hopeful (and in some cases wishful) talk than I've heard retrospective success, "I actually did it" talk. So has anybody here actually made a decision later in life (senior year in college or later), taken the courses for med school, pharm school, etc. in a nontraditional manner, and then ACTUALLY GOTTEN IN?
