Is it possible to become an MD as an adult (i.e. starting medical school in late 30s)?
So, would you say it's harder for someone to become a doctor as an adult versus someone who starts right after college?
It depends on the individual's circumstances and personal motivation. Some older students may bring more life experience and maturity to their medical training, which can actually be an advantage. However, they may also face more financial and family obligations that can make it more difficult to focus solely on their studies.
