I didn't start my degree until I was 30, and will be 36 or 37 when I finally graduate (part-time student, full-time career). 7 years of work just to have the opportunity to try law school.

The point is that you'll ALWAYS have the opportunity to get it done, but now is probably your easiest/best opportunity. You could have your MD before I have my undergraduate degree.

More important than anything else........YOUR WORST CASE SCENARIO IS:

Try, fail and find yourself a very well educated degree holder in his early-to-mid-twenties. News flash.....you'd still be ahead of the game, lucky devil.
