When I was younger (18 years old) I was charged with a felony for attempted promotion of a harmful drug. I hired the best lawyer I could get, and since the evidence against me was weak (I really hadn't done anything wrong) I was offered a deferred sentence with 5 years of probation. During that time, I did not even get pulled over once.
I live in the state of Hawaii (obviously from the username) and I am wanting to apply for medical school. I was always under the impression that because I completed the terms, the state dropped the charges, and I got my record expunged it was done and over with like it never happened.
I am very passionate about medicine and do really well in college, however I am now afraid that applying to medical school will be futile as I may never be able to get my DEA license?
Does anyone have any experience in this matter? I have a friend who swears his friend has a cocaine felony still on his record, but I find that hard to believe.
Any advice would be much appreciated, or any direction I could turn to for more advice
