I agree medical school in your 50s would be a difficult choice. My father's friend's wife was a physician in the Republic of Georgia. They emigrated to the USA when she was in her mid 40s but her credentials were not accepted. It took her several years to gain admission to a US medical school with a near perfect MCAT. Despite being the top student in her class, she had enormous difficulty gaining a residency. She is finished now and working in a hospital but I don't think the suffering was worth it. Her daughter was married and out of the house during these years. Her husband supported her during these years but the stress took a toll on him as well.
