Hi all, just posting here for a gut check. I'm a very non-traditional student (will matriculate at 40). Two of my biggest regrets in life are not pursuing medicine sooner and never joining the military. I know it's nothing like the service, but I did go to a military academy in high school and was in a "Corp of Cadets" during university. Again, nothing like the real deal, but I at least know how to shine my shoes and am handy with Brasso. That being said, I'm contemplating either HPSP or MDSSP. Obviously, there are some major differences in commitment and lifestyle between the two, but if I were to go HPSP I would be most interested in the Navy, and as far as I'm aware only the Army Reserve offers MDSSP.
Has anyone ever heard of an applicant my age entering into either of these programs? Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you all.
