fast forward to the first semester of dental school skinning and decapitating a human corpse and dissecting in areas not even relevant to general dentistry. I was so relieved I could avoid student loans for at least those first years. The income from that and finally deciding to sell the company allowed me to secure a condo and pay for the first 2 years of school. In the time I spent in between application cycles (total 4 years) I did a variety of jobs I hated and ultimately saw a level of success with a company I started. To my surprise I got not one but 2 acceptances!! I was beyond happy and my parents and little sister were so proud, it was a wonderful feeling. After 2 cycles of rejections I finally got accepted on my third try. So I had wanted to be a dentist for as long as I can remember, for a multitude of reasons. I feel completely lost and dont even know what kinds of jobs dental or medical school dropouts seek and successfully manage to get.I dont know if my reasons for staying are enough to stay and what guarantees I wont have these feelings to leave down the line when I'd be up to my neck in loans. The only thing thats keeping me from flat out walking away is 1- out of respect for the DECADE I have spent trying to make it in, And 2- Fear- fear of not being able to find something semi decent with this bio degree and then regretting my decision to leave. I am obviously also disappointed in myself as well but I know in my heart I did give this my all and its disheartening that it wasn't enough.
