Is it late to change my education at 23 years old?

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I am a 23 years old college student, it's my 4th year in college but I couldn't get my bachelor's yet because I failed 2 times. I am normally a very hard studying person but my education is too hard, I am in the medical field. I wanted to drop out many times but carried on because it made me feel sad to see my friends getting their degrees. But I am getting really depressed and I don't know if what I am doing in my life is right. I want to change my field but that will mean starting everything from zero. Is it worth doing at 23 ?

Most jobs don’t care what degree you have. Just that you have a degree. Finish those two classes you failed, get your degree and get an unrelated job.

If you then want to work in a field that requires some specific degree. Work your job and take night/online courses for a second degree.

The point being. You’re so close to your degree. Just finish it. Work some unrelated job. When you have the second degree you want. Having any professional experience and two degrees will look better for you. When starting in that field.

If you flunked out two full semesters worth of classes. Think about getting a full time job. So you’ll have money and time to ponder if college is right for you. There’s nothing wrong with not finishing. Maybe you just need a break from college to figure out what you want.

Trust me at my age I still don’t know what I want to do. You’re fine. If I could go back to your age w the mentality I had now fuck I’d be a beast lol do what makes you happy kiddo. No one is going to care more about you than you. Forget your friends. If they’re really friends they won’t give you shit about it, maybe a little encouragement but not not talking shit. What exactly were you going to do in the medical field?

Well time will pass either way and you should look at yourself in the future and decide whether you would be happy with something else than if you didn't pursue something else.

If you have the money to change, then change.
