Hello everyone! My name is James and I am 33 years old from Southern California. I am currently an elementary school teacher with a masters and bachelors degree(non science). I am wanting to become a medical doctor. I know it is a lot of work. I can’t afford to not work while I take care of the science prereqs. I saw that UCSD has extension classes with labs for only 845 dollars. Anyone use these? Does anyone have any other recommendations on evening or online post bacc programs? I think UCSD would be the best and most affordable choice. Please let me know of similar experiences!
