MSHQ 011 : Interview with a 56-Year-Old Medical Student




The Medical School HQ Podcast: Premed | Med School | Residency | MCAT | USMLE | COMLEX show

Summary: In Session 11 I talk to Kate. She recently turned 56-years-old, and is a 3rd year medical student at West Virginia School of Medicine. AMAZING! You can read a profile that she wrote for us already here.   Kate shares with us her story of switching from a biology major, focusing on premed, to nursing and how at age 50, she got the itch to go back to school to become a physician. One of the decisions that helped her make the decision to switch to nursing was the cut-throat culture of the premed (I'm hoping to change that here!).
