Validation

My scores finally arrived an hour ago and I validated my ability to take tests with a solid, competitive MCAT score. Sadly, my biological sciences score was lower than it should have been but verbal and physical sciences made up for it. Seeing this score has been both relieving and frustrating at the same time. I was expecting, almost hoping for, the worst case scenario, a score that would keep me from being competitive at any major medical school, therefore affirming my decision to not apply. But my scores are good, better than I could have hoped, and a small part of me is second guessing my decision to wait on applying. Now, my sincere hope is that I find a great job that keeps me in Austin, keeps me home near to the people I love, and gives me the opportunity to learn in a new manner.

Nathan,

I knew you would do well, and I think you did too. You made your decision for solid reasons and I don't think you should regret it. There is always time to go back if you want to in the future, so now it's your chance to pick something you love doing and work at it.
