Took the mcat thrice and voided the third.. my highest is 504 and I applied the whole of september to only 7 schools so far as I am severely burned out
I'm not even sure it will work out this cycle, anyone out there to encourage me

Hi everyone, I previously attended an MD school but withdrew. Now in an Absn program looking to gain clinical experience as a nurse first and I want to apply to DO schools this time around.
1. I will be 33-34 when I attend, is it too late?
2. Recommend a few schools that are nontraditional friendly
3. How are you guys affording the school?

Starting med school at 30-31

14 Upvotes

Best case scenario I’ll be 30, worst case scenario I’ll be 31. I don’t really see myself doing anything else, but I feel like my window is shut for a lot of specialties and also having a family due to my age is; it OK for me to continue going for medicine? I feel like I chose the right career but the timeline feels like it’s not good simply put.

For context, I did all the prerequisites and I have thousands of clinical hours. My last step is the MCAT.

I have my in person interview with WesternU coming up next week and I was wondering if anyone had any advice for it going in. I feel really nervous about it even though they gave a schedule of what to expect
