I am 22 years old. I did not find anything I enjoyed in college and did not go beyond two years of college. I have a 2.49 GPA.
I have been a firefighter for three years and began to take EMT classes. Studying the human body is extraordinarily interesting, I study 5 hours a day eagerly, and am wondering if it is possible to become a Doctor.
By next year I will be a paramedic, something I wanted to do in order to better help people as a firefighter. A doctor is a better way to help people I realize, especially since it’s so fascinating to me.
What should I do? Hypothetically if I score the basic 30 on the MCAT and will have been a firefighter/paramedic for all this time, how should I deal with college?
I live in northern virginia, should I get my bachelors in a low end college, then go for my Master’s Degree to show an improvement? Or retake failed classes to get accepted into a decent college to show improvement? What degree should I seek this late(2 yrs in) in the game? Also, should I add volunteer work at a hospital, or is community service as a firefighter/medic enough.
Help? Advice?
