Give Up On Dream

I always wanted to go into Medical School to be a psychiatrist but my GPA is a 2.8 and if I took the MCAT I would definitely fail badly plus I don’t have enough extracurricular activities to make me stand out. My study skills are undeveloped due to my short term focus and memory issues. I’m not that good at science and my critical thinking skills are not that up to par yet. I want to start working immediately and I was told becoming an MD is not worth all the time and money for what they get paid because I would be studying for 12 years before I can even work as one. But what I am good at is helping people and my motivation is to change and save lives. I was told that I should become a PA or NP but again I do not think I can even make it to that level due to my lack of skills/intelligence. I don’t know what to do and mostly I think I should give up and stick to being an HHA.
