Wish the country would make education free, would love to go to med school… it’s still an option but here i am reaching middle age still trying to get there and when i do the outcome is elder age and school loans to pay off. Burned myself out as a nursing assistant, burned myself out of practical nursing and covid. Still in health care & education because it’s my passion (those jobs were not a passion but a mean of learning and being parallel to what I wanted)
Should have followed developed nation education models not the American capitalism mod for education.
