why chose MD?
Hi!
Currently i’m in my senior year in undergrad and by december, i’ll have my degree in biology. I have always sworn off becoming an MD due to the financial burden, and honestly i don’t even like the term “pre-med”. while debating on what to do after graduation, there’s this lingering thought in the back of my mind that i would regret not trying to go to medical school. i absolutely love learning
and feel confident in my ability to be successful. however, I feel very strongly that there is only one specialty for me (pathology) and i’ve felt this way for years. this worries me as i don’t want to through the schooling to and match to a different specialty. i’ve also considered a pa as well as a pathologists assistant (of which i’ve shadowed both), but don’t know if those would satisfy me long term. so i feel stuck in this weird gray area which has been overwhelming. does anyone mind sharing what made them choose md over everything else?
