Hi
I'm an older person, 39, about to apply to med school. I would like some input on my chances. I have a biology degree with a 4.00 gpa and 34 MCAT. Aside from my age, my big concern is that I don't have any ECs on my application. I've been a paramedic for 15 years and have a family. With a full time job, a family and full course load in college I just didn't have the time. Will this hurt me? My degree was started quite a few years ago and in the beginning I had a lot of Ws because of my changing work hours and no other reason. Thats why I quit until recently and I returned full time and completed my degree with a full course load. Do I have any chance at this? I've worked for this and wanted this for longer than a lot of premeds have been alive, surely this counts for something. Thanks
