Hi I graduated from pharmacy school in 2014 and completed a 2 year residency specializing in MH. I’ve questioned myself throughout this journey, and I have finally realized I want to be a MD.

My questions:
1) tips on how to prepare for MCAT: what materials to use, how long to study, etc.
2) tips for personal statements and interview: I am guessing there will be a lot of questions about why go back when you have a successful career
3) is it worth it?

thank you in advance

TBH, I'm not the person to answer these questions myself, but I recommend Goro's thread on pre-meds who need reinvention for advice on the personal statement, post-bacs and special masters programs (SMPs), and MCAT prep. Even if GPA isn't an issue for you, there may be some useful parts of the thread for your situation. Good luck!
