Hello everybody!
I'm seriously considering a career change at the ripe old age of 23. I will be a summer B.A. lib arts grad. Changed mind about what I wanted to do, now I want to join my father in medicine.
I take it that it is too late to apply to post-bac programs for fall 2009 start. So should I start volunteering at a hospital to show interest in medicine? My dad is a GP; would working for him be the same, or do post-bac programs, and later on, medical schools, want to see research experience in some bio lab? (Obvs it'd be easier to arrange.)
I don't know the mores and norms on this forum so please don't yell at me too much to start!
