[quote=Anonymous]I am in my late twenties and going to med school this fall. I had post bacc friends who were lawyers. I'd say it's not worth it. The competition is so fierce to get in. You must score amazingly on mcat, which is very difficult to do. The stamina alone to do multiple 8 hour practice mcat exams (and imagine doing this for three licensing exams during med school)... I still have nightmares. You must have near perfect grades in your coursework, all of it. And the worst part is the prerequisites are not enough. You need to volunteer and prove you aren't making a mistake to every interviewer (if you get an interview!). I think you are glamorizing medicine. Try to find something in law, teaching... anything else. [/quote]
