Unfortunately, not doing great at all. I've always liked science and medicine. But to be quite honest the major reason I applied to medschool was not solely rested on the love for medicine (like rather), but more so on the practical reasons (stability in the future both for myself and my family). I know that my parents pension won't even cover their rent, and they will depend on me. All my mom can dream about is "my daughter a doctor w/ her own office". But honestly, I'm absolutely miserable right now. I have never felt so stupid as I do now. I've always been a good student, and now I can't seem to pass. I feel like a complete failure. Yet at the same time with each day I feel more and more like I don't want to be here. That i made the wrong decision. And not just because i'm not passing. My family is being as supportive as they can, but at the same time feel like if I do fail out its gonna be the biggest dissapointment for them. I still want to stay in medicine, but not on a doctor track. But with that I doubt that PA programs will be thrilled to take a med -school drop out. Hey,

Man I miss teaching. Those moments when they fall asleep on you are the best. I cherish them since I know my days are numbered. Did you get a reply from your zinger? Man I miss teaching.
