Hi, my husband has decided to bite the bullet and apply to medical school. I am totally OCD and so have joined this site to read everything I can about what it's like to live with a med student/resident.
He is 31, I am 36. We live in Kansas City, and have a son who is almost 3 and I work as a nurse doing "weekend work" = work 2 -12's and get paid for 3. Hubby has taken MCAT, did well, has a high GPA but most likely lukewarm LOR's and currently no EC's or patient experience so this year will be about gaining this type of experience working, volunteering and shadowing physicians.
I know most of you are already in this lifestyle so it's great coming here reading all of this info, seeing what is in store for the family. I am glad so many of you are already married with kids. Makes me feel not so alone.
Thanks!
