1. UCF does not require ACT or GRE, but you'll need to round up your transcripts from UF.
2. I vote "DIY" second-degree student post-bacc for financial reasons, and flexibility. I've still yet to see any benefit to formal SMP, and not even sure any schools in Orlando area offer this.
3. You can get your feet wet at a CC with chem and bio and *maybe* physics, but take your orgos/biochem/electives at a University.
4. Since you're looking at graduating med school circa age 47, keep in mind what residencies you'd be "limited" to (realistically), and make sure you are interested in these residencies.
5. Do the math on paper. Make sure that the cost (appx. $200,000 in debt + opportunity cost), low wages in residency considering age, and the amount you stand to make before retirement, all while raising children and putting them through school, will be feasible. I worked it down to the dollar before I took the leap and when I actually saw on paper that I stood to make $1.5 mil more by retirement, and be in a better position to pay for my son's college, than if I'd stayed at my current profession, I was able to justify the time sacrifice to my family and personal life.
6. Don't worry about your age, but do worry about the math. Anyone can do this with the right commitment. I always throw out "PA" as an option too - similar job, good pay, less school, good quality of life, though less autonomy, lots of clinical hours required to apply.
Whatever you decide, good luck!
