Yeah I know about the Caribbeans but that’s where I’m stuck… I don’t know if it came to that if I would go. I’m sure I would like to become a surgeon (pediatric/ young adult cancer survivor and I’ve been around tons of surgeons and radiologists for too long) but its only a matter if I am competitive enough to be admitted into good med schools. I shadowed my ENT this past year for 6 weeks - he wouldn’t let in the OR though but thats understandable…

My GPA shouldn’t drop but at this point its pretty much stable unless I do nothing but 4.0 from now on. My parents and basic logic tell me to stick it out with engineering but just try harder. After I graduate take a year off from the engineering track and take my ochem / bio series and study for the MCAT’s and see what happens…

What’d you think?
