I'm currently going into my second semester of sophomore year at a good liberal arts school with a 3.8 GPA. My whole life I've been wanting to be a surgeon, and have always had a strong natural ability in anything to do with biology, which I love. However as of about six months ago I started getting into trading cryptocurrencies (basically the same as trading stocks with higher profit potential and less fees) and have fallen in love with it. I've made a very good amount of money for myself and I find the world of finance drawing me in, whether it be Ibanking, Wall Street, day trading, whatever. These are two very different areas and I'm very quickly approaching the crossroads of what to pick, and while finance is becoming more attractive, the thought of doing all the years of residency and graduate school to become an MD continuously looms over me, without even factoring in the difficulty of getting into med school. The downside to finance is if things go south I may end up in a cubicle somewhere spending my life in a box behind a computer screen, while if I'm able to get into med school I trust myself to be able to graduate and go on to do a job I'll greatly enjoy. I don't really know how to end this, I guess I'm asking for others who are well informed in this to weigh in on this.
Thanks in advance.
