How rogue do people think it is to make a sudden career change?
I'm about to graduate with a degree in Classics. No chemistry or biology A-Level, although I did do Mathematics. I'm planning on taking a year out, working as a HCA and volunteering at a Care Home for the year. Hopefully will also get some shadowing experience with Doctors at a GP or Hospital. Planning on studying for the GAMSAT and UKCAT over summer and then applying to Warwick, Swansea, Newcastle and Nottingham.
Most people I've spoken to have been supportive about it. A few have been utterly shocked and tried to convince me I'm crazy and that this is not at all possible with my degree and a-level background and one went so far as to say "i wouldnt want to be treated by you if you became a doctor with a classics degree".
