take the MCAT

Alright- this weekend I need to memorize just about every equation on the MCAT. I need this foundation for the next month of studying and I think it’s achievable by Monday. Tonight I’ll start with Physics.

Ugh. This test is overwhelming.

At the end of the day, that’s really what I want to be. It’s what I am.

Wanting to take the MCAT, go to med school, all of that… it wasn’t because I wanted to be a doctor. It’s because I wasn’t ready to be done with school, to become an adult. “Step up and step out,” as one of my favorite preceptors told me.

I’m going to be a darn good pharmacist. (We do lots more than count pills by the way. ;))

I used to want to be a doctor, but never thought I was smart enough. Now I’ll be earning my PharmD, and I know that I am. Being a pharmacist means a good job where I can pay off my debts and make good money. Going to med school means being a poor, stressed out college student awhile longer…

I can’t decide for myself, so I’m going to take the MCAT. If I do well, I AM GOING TO BE A DAMNED GOOD DOCTOR. If not, I will not be heartbroken, I will just be a damned good pharmacist. :)
