Is this doable with my current situation?
Hey guys. I just want to be quick and concise. 26M working as a restaurant manager in LA since I was 18. Went to a local university and settled on bio as a major but later regretted it and dropped out. Took 8 yrs to finish my degree and ended up at a 2.9 GPA. That being said my quantitative skills are much more apparent with calculus 1 and stats both being As while lower gen Ed’s, random chem and bio class being all over the place from Fs to As and in between. Anyways I’ve been learning about biostatistics as a career and was thinking about pivoting into that area. I was thinking about trying to get a clinical research coordinator job then doing some pre reqs and applying to USCs bio stats program then eventually getting into that industry. Anyways are there any potholes in my thinking or drawbacks? All opinions appreciated. Thank you.
