Hello. I'm new to this forum and I need some realistic opinions from pre-med and current medical students. After years of unsuccessful academic performance, I decided to give college another shot. I decided I want to become a doctor, but my past academic performance haunts me. I have a total 6 F's on my transcript( including 2 lab F's). I also have 2 D's and a couple of C's. A lot of people have told me I'm stupid for considering such a competitive field, like is medicine, and that I will never make it.The thing is I was very immature and I didn't care much about school. Is medical school (MD) unrealistic?? I'm a 22 years old Latino girl. Should I rather consider another career? Thanks 🙂 I appreciate honesty please!
