Hi everyone-
I've been a lurker on this site for a LOOOOOONG time and have really drawn a lot of inspiration from all of the non-trads here. I figured it's time to contribute. 😉
I am 36 years old and at times I wonder what the hell I'm doing with this pre-med stuff. Other times I'm very confident about my chances (mostly because of the posts I read here and on OPM).
I've been working full time as an alcohol and drug counselor while completing my prereqs at a CC . Lately I've been thinking of sucking it up and quitting work, going to school full-time and living off of financial aid as well as my wife's income (she is very supportive of this whole process).
Has any other non-trads out there followed a similar route?
I'm tranferring to UC Davis soon to finish a BS in psych and no matter how hard I try, I can't stop getting older. 😳 My end goal is to be a DO psychiatrist with an addiction medicine specialty.
Thanks for reading.
Scott
