Hello,
I am currently in the millitary and have been considering a career in the medical feild for about 20 yrs now. I just turned 29 and I will be 32 when I get out of the military to pursue my dream. My question to all you non-trads out there is what was or will be your ages when you got into medical school. I do not care when I start med school. This came up when I seriously started talking to my girlfriend about it. She said that the process was a long one(which I already know) and I was too old to start now. She wasnt trying to put me down, but didnt want me to feel bad when I appear to be the 'oldest guy in the class'. I assured her that it didnt matter to me. So, I just wanted to take this oppurtunity to ask my fellow non-trads this question. At least to show the girlfriend that I am not the only one thats crazy enough to drop everything to go to medical school. Thank you in advance for your replies.
