hi everyone - I am hoping that since many people who look on this board have probably dealt with making the decision to go into medicine, that you will be able to help me through this.
I am 24 and majored in history, took sluff science classes, and in the back of my mind i wanted to do pre med, but never really got around to it. Now i can't stop thinking about it. i thought i had found a happy medium with public health, but i really don't think i'll be happy doing anything else but going into medicine, which is of course incredibly immature of me to say because i haven't even waded in the serious science stuff . . . it's just this monster that rears its head and won't let me rest with any other decisions i make. i am, of course, worried of the science intensity, but feel confident that if i spend the time needed, i can do it. more than that, i am worried about divorcing the world i know about - humanities, development, etc, and going into this just because of this feeling, indelible as it is. any thoughts? thank you.
