I will tell you. I dropped out of medical school in my first year. I had no problems academically. I had trouble with the costs and what I perceived as the future of healthcare.
I had a conversation with a family doc at the white coat ceremony. (This big pompous cloistering bullshit ceremony to make you feel 'special') And he said, "so what did you do before you got in."
I said, "I was a paramedic, carpenter, and stone and brick mason. And I raise cattle with my family."
He chuckled and replied, "Why would you give that up?"
Absolutely, 100% true, I swear. Nothing else was said, but I got the sense about mid semester that since I was destine for GP or something of that nature I was going to 250K in debt to net 95K.
That combined with other factors led me to hang it up, I have NO REGRETS!
Quoting: American Sith: Darth Shillerus Good story. I always dreamed of being a carpenter, but went the academic route. I sometimes regret it.
