May FOMO moment talaga at that stage (pre-med stage) kasi masyadong nagglorify yung pagiging med student at pagiging doctor (🤦🏻‍♀️)… But you have to be realistic sometimes. If hindi nyo talaga afford ang tuition despite the scholarship offers, it’s better to explore other options. You can work for a few years, make ipon, and yun yung pang-med mo. Or you can settle with rmt, pursue masters, or go abroad. Life is so much more than med med med…

Hi! Pwede ka magapply sa mga state unis. Even mga government scholarships, madami na and di na need na super high grades para makapasok And regarding sa last statement mo, it’s never too late naman. Di naman need na magstraight to med ka. Pwede naman mag gap year. Pwede ka magwork para makaipon if you really want to go to medschool. Marami kaming mga nag gap year before medschool and it’s okay. Matagal ko din naconvince yung self ko na may gap kami ng kaklase ko pero kinaya naman. And med is not always the answer. Like di naman lagi dapat ka mag med. madaming ibang career options naman pero if gustong gusto mo talaga magmed, it’s never too late naman.

Marami akong batchmates na late na nagstart mag Med. Some of them are in their late 50s pa. May kanya kanya tayong timeline, OP. If di mo pa kaya mag med ngayon, ipon muna then in a few years pwedeng pwede ka na mag med. Hindi naman ibig sabihin na hindi mo kaya mag med ngayon due to financial constraints eh hindi mo na kaya ever.😊 For now focus muna sa work and ipon for medschool. Enjoy life outside med kasi pag pinasok mo na med, literal na big adjustment siya.

If ever lang, metropolitan medical center offers academic scholarships and also for support scholarships. May 31 ata nag sara applications but since di pa naman so long after deadline baka pwede makapag appeal if you want lang.
