I first read this forum several years ago when I was considering going to medical school. As I was about 50 at the time, I ultimately elected to go to a physician assistant program.
I recently published an account of how I stumbled into medicine in my 30s and ultimately went to school at age 58. Hopefully there is enough similarity so that this day-to-day description of what that felt like will be of interest to prospective students of any age.
