I thought you were working becoming a nurse, which is awesome also, but medical school is even more cool. Best of luck with medical school, I work at a hospital right now and enjoy seeing all the med students rotating through and eventually coming back as docs.
BTW, donât feel bad if you donât know me, I am not a frequent poster but I read through this forum often, and you have always served as an inspiration to me while working on schooling (both mine and my childrenâs). Thanks to your help/answers to the few posts I have made, I was able to finish my BA at TESC in three months, and am now almost finished with my masters degree in forensic science.
I didnât mean to highjack the thread, I was just very impressed when I read you are applying to med school.

Shhhhhh. I haven't said anything really. LOL
Here's the quick story- I'm going to try. If I don't make it, so be it. I'm not afraid to fail. BUT, if I can get in, I'm going. As an OB-GYN, I can employ midwives and run a midwife practice which embodies the philosophies I hold very close to my heart. It would give me the ultimate authority over the way I practice. As the midwife, I'd be #2 forever. While I don't mind answering to a boss, at some point when I might actually be qualified to make a decision, then I want to be the one making the decisions.
So, I have been accepted to 2 nursing schools, I'm only enrolling if I get rejected from 27 DO schools.
I appreciate you telling me that I was helpful or instrumental or whatever...that means a lot. For what it's worth, I think forensic science is about as cool as it gets. Are you going to be a CSI? Does everyone ask you that lol? Sorry, it's probably nothing like that, but I love CSI!
