Hi I am a single mom who recently went back to school. My current pursuing degree is a Bachelors in Public health/ Pre- Med track. Initially my goal was to become a NP or PA, but one morning I woke up with the idea of going to medical school. I guess I am here to ask if it is do-able, if anyone else has seen anyone survive it in the same shoes as me? To give you a background about me, I am a veteran, toured in Iraq, worked as a surgical tech for over 10yrs in both civilian and government hospitals. I am not young, 33 and estimate applying for Graduate school in 2-3 years. Are there older students in med school, and is there an age limit to apply ? I don't have much support with my son, but have been getting through my semesters and passing all my classes. My professors have been great and he sits with me in class at times.
Does anyone know what they look for in an applicant for med school ? Any feedback would be great!
