Hello
My name is Zainab,i live in Norway and i'm a dental hygiene student. I want to apply to medical school next year and i'm pretty sure that i'll get in,but it takes 6years and i really feel too old to be studying medicine!!
I was wonering if there are students at your universities,in europe mainly, that are over 20.

Zainab, you are still young! I am 28 years old. Maybe older than you!!. I studied biomedical science '' bioingeniør'' in Norway. I work at hospital as biomedical ingeniør. Nevertheless I am planning to study medicine either in Norway or in east Europe.
So, there is way to everything, if one have a strong will and ALLAH hjelps him/her.
Doin't give up as long as you are on the earth!

Sister Zinab,
There are mature students who get accepted. The oldest successful applicant I know this year was 43 years old! I also met a 52year old male in 4th year. The average age for 1st year students in my uni was also about 21-22years. However, there are universities that don't quite accept the more mature applicants mainly due to the time it takes to train, so it all depends. There are also other universities that have special accelerated graduate course.
All the best if you wish to apply, don't let age hinder you ;-)
May Allah make it easy for you.
