I just had lunch with a good, female friend of mine. She shared how excited she was that I am returning to school to go to med school (or at least try to go ).
After that, she started talking about how she had always wanted to go to med school, but hadn't. Now, she is married and has two children (6 and 3). She feels that it is too late for her. I tried to explain to her that it is never too late, etc. Of course, that rings kind of hollow coming from a single guy...
What I am asking for, if it is possible, are personal stories - either your own, or people you know, who were in similar situations and decided to go back. How did they do it, etc?
If my friend decides that she will not try for medical school because she does not want to, that is one thing, but to not try because she thinks it is not possible when it is - that is a shame.
Thanks in advance for any and all help.
