Porridge: You''re so cute! Hello! It only happened yesterday. And I always wondered because I think you mentioned something before, but are you a med student too?
Hey!Nope, I''m a physical therapy student. Applied for medicine and it was a near miss. Well actually I was accepted in Scotland, but I didn''t want to move when I was 18. Parents didn''t want me to repeat my Leaving Cert (mum''s a doctor, works wayyy too hard) so did physical therapy as the next best thing, really really enjoying it. Graduating in 6 weeks, plan to work for one year and then consider my next move - stick with this career and specialize, or apply for med school at the age of 25, and take on all that debt, give up my free time...
I''m so on the fence about whether to go for it or not that I usually think I''m just not cut out for it. Maybe not getting in years ago knocked my confidence. But I think it''s one of those things you should always really want to do if you''re going to do it. Anyway, I''m putting all career options out of my head until I get out of college and work for a while.
Oops, that turned into a bit of an essay, sorry!! /end threadjack
Congratulations again
