Ever feel like you don't know what to do with your life? Not sure you could choose one career for the rest of your life? Well that's exactly how I felt for a long time. In fact my dream of becoming a physician did not really begin until two years ago when my wife was already 3 months pregnant. It was towards the end of my graduate coursework that I realized I wanted to pursue a career as a medical doctor. I began this blog about one year before I was accepted and sparsley documented my MCAT prep and addmissions process. Now that I am in I will be recording how well (or not so well at times) I handle the rigors of being a husband, father, and medical student. My intention is to show that one can have a family and hobbies and still be a successful medical student. I hope this blog will be an inspiration to others taking a non traditional path to their career and also be a little entertaining.

MCAT and WINGS

This weekend marks the 6 six week point from my official MCAT. Tomorrow I am going to take my 8th practice test, even though it is one that I have already taken. It is AAMC test 3 which was the first AAMC test I took about three months ago. That day I made a 21 and I feel quite sure I will make much better tomorrow. Not better because I have memorized the answers but because I have learned so much in the last three months. However, while I am excited about taking the test, I am really excited about The Battle of the Buffalo. That's the second annual ATO benefit fundraiser at UAH that offers all-u-can eat wings from all of the local wing places for only 5 dollars! That's right, all the wings you can eat for 5 bucks. Lets hope for no rain as it is set to take place atop the UAH parking deck. Ok well I still need to go study biology so I'm out. Good night. I'll post my score tomorrow as well as my vote for best wings in town.
