Hey everyone! So I like posting AMAs on my summer/winter breaks to give both pre-meds and newmeds the opportunity to ask random questions, and we've just begun winter break so here I am.
Background: I'm a female non-trad in my late thirties entering medicine as a second career (technically third career). Had to do extensive GPA repair as I was sub-3.0 when I decided to attempt this. Currently attending a US MD school.
Obviously many questions people have are not cut and dry and can only be answered from my own perspective. Last time I did an AMA a few other non-trad med students came in to offer different opinions and experiences and I absolutely welcome that. I can only speak for myself. There are a few questions I can think of that would pinpoint me or the school I go to; those I will offer to answer in PM (or you can PM me first if you think it would warrant a more private answer). That said, if there's anything you'd like to ask a current student, let it loose. I'll be keeping up with this until the second week of January when we go back.
