Okay so I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place for this thread but I figured it had to do with significant others so I chose it.
I was accepted into two medical school programs. The first a DO very close to home and close to where my boyfriend goes to grad school. 4 months later, I was accepted to an MD school about 3 hours away. I'm having some trouble with this huge decision because for the past four months, I've been picturing living super close to my boyfriend (25 minutes) and still becoming a doctor.
Here is some additional background:
I have had the goal of becoming an MD for 6 years. I only heard of DO once in college and didn't apply to DO my first cycle. My boyfriend and I have been dating for 5 years and are very serious. We met in high school and went to undergrad together. Basically inseparable. I know not to make a decision about my career based on a boy, but he truly is a huge part of my life.
If any one has any life experiences or advice they can share, i would truly appreciate it. I feel beyond lucky and proud to be in the situation I am in. I am afraid that if I stay close to him, down the road I will regret not reaching my goal when I could have. If I did my have him in my life, I would hands down go to the MD school. Help!!!
