It has been my goal for a few years now to become a doctor. I checked all the boxes off and applied once but didn’t make it in (got on one wait-list). Spent some time strengthening my application by becoming a paramedic and am gearing up to try again.
The thing is my gf is in her late 30s and I want to have a family with her. I really enjoy my paramedic job and can see myself doing this for a while. I’m worried if we wait to see if I get into med school it will end up being too late, especially if I don’t make it in a second time. I know I definitely want to start a family with her but I’m worried if I give up on being a doctor I’ll end up regretting it down the line. What should I do?
