Hey guys!
So, I've got a bit of a dilemma here, and I could really use your insights and advice. I'm 22 years old, and it's been five years since I last set foot in a school. I've been working and I always come back to square 1.
I've always had this burning desire to become a doctor, but I wasn't sure if it was still possible after being away from formal education for so long. But I've been accepted into an Access to HE course in Biomed, and I can't believe this is actually happening!
The catch is that I'm not entirely sure if this access course will lead me to a medicine degree. Do you guys know anyone who went down this path and successfully made it into a medical school? Can I really chase my dream of becoming a doctor through this route?
Also, I'd love to hear from anyone who went back to education after a break. How was it for you? Any tips to cope with the whole "getting back into study mode" thing?
I won't lie; the idea of applying to medical school sounds daunting, and I can't help but have those "what if" moments. But hey, sometimes we have to take a leap of faith, right?
Also, what about the application process and interviews? I'm feeling a bit anxious about that part too. How should I prepare myself for it? Any tips, advice, or personal experiences would be golden!

So, hit me with your thoughts, experiences, or any helpful advice you've got. I'm all ears
