hey pre-meds!

I’m writing from Cambridge, MA. I’m female, age 33 and started general chemistry this summer.


I feel a little crazy and delayed when many of the other folks my age are well-ensconced in developing their homes and families. Slightly unfortunate that I won’t be growing my retirement plan or even being close to where these folks are but alas, I have to just keep moving forward.


I am excited about the possibility of being in medical school. I do need support though! Everyone else is in a different phase in their life!


All the best.
