The age old question of : i'm 25 am I too old to study medicine ?

Would you consider 25 to be too old to study medicine, it's something I wanted to do, however after the completion of my degree, I did a gap year, and then worked a bit. Would being 25 hinder my application ?

Not really, I've got a cousin who started studying Medicine at the age of 26. He just finished this year.

There's a woman on my course who is 33 and single mum of two kids. And still parties with the best of them. Age is just a number :wink:

One of my SHOs is 40, so must have started med school about 32-33, and she's brilliant!

I'm 24 and just started and apparently about 20% of people in my year (out of about 260) are 23 years or older so there are plenty of us!
