No it's not to old. You'd get your MD at 27. You're only a year behind. Besides, your residency can be hella long anyway. Age doesn't matter. Smarts are important, but the most important thing is dedication and determination. MAKE it happen, don't think about it happening.

No it's not too old, not at all! I actually know a guy in med school right now and he oddly enough doesn't know what kind of doctor he wants to be (and he's at least mid 20's). As for IQ, you better check admissions at a few medical schools then you'd know what your scores need to be.

It is never too late to want to further your education. You don't have to have a super high IQ to be a doctor. It takes tons of dedication and memorizing though. Good luck!
