I just did a post like this couple days ago. I am 25 and just started my bachelors. Everyone told me, I am not too old and a lot responded they are applying at 40 years "young" for med school ;P Good luck!!

To older med students: Did you have to repeat your prerequisites to apply for med school?

Nope, not unless you got below a C. It makes studying for the MCAT like a visit to the past. I hadn't taken physics in ten years when I started studying for it.

I started med school at 32, finished residency at 40.

I had to retake all of mine but math/English.
