Hey Everyone,
Hopfully I will not be getting booted from here for being only 23 But I suppose I would still fall under the non-traditional applicant category. Joined the Marines right from high school and now am becoming interested in pursuing a carrier in medicine. Looking foward to meeting all of you!

I’m sure you’ll be fine Doug. We’ve only had to kick 2 people out of 3000+ over the last 4 years.
Welcome to OPM!

And that was because they were really, really, really rude. We never card here on OldPreMeds.

Don’t lose hope. Even though NC does not have any good medical schools you are not limited to the Carolina’s…
