Hi all. I am definitely a non-traditional student and am looking for advice or suggestions on where to get it. I am a 26 year old Houstonian. I am married, pregnant with my second child, and have a bachelors of science degree in cellular and molecular biology. I was extremely irresponsible in early undergrad but when I had my first daughter I grew up and graduated with a 3.3. Since graduation I have been a stay at home mom. I am very passionate about my family and about science, specifically cancer biology and cancer genetics. I've always wanted to go to medical school but again didn't mature early enough. I was all talk and no action until the end. Now I'm kicking myself because this journey with children is going to be so much harder! Regardless, I want to GO FOR IT! I love my children, they are my number one priority but what will be my purpose when they leave for college? I'd rather try and fail than to never attempt and regret it for the rest of my life. I would not apply for the next few years because I want to stay home with my little girls until they're in school, so my questions are what do I do to improve/stay relevant/become a competitive candidate? I know I sound crazy, but sometimes it takes a little crazy to make it happen. Thanks in advance!
