Hello all! I am looking to apply to medical school, but am a bit conflicted about my timeline.
I am 28 years old with an undergrad in Econ at a top public school with cGPA of 3.75 and slightly higher science GPA, albeit with lower level science courses. I served in the Army for about 5 years after college and am looking to shift into medicine after I recently separated. I currently work as an EMT at a level 1 trauma center and am looking to start pre-med requirements this summer.
So, my dilemma. I have 0 pre-reqs under my belt and plan on taking classes in the following order:
Summer 2020:
Bonus question - Do you have time after interviews to travel? Ideally I'd like to take an accelerated paramedic course or take a wilderness course with NOLS.
Thank you!
