I want to go back to school. Of course 40 isn't too old to go back to school right?

Nope! I was 43 when I started my full time program. I'm 46 now.
In class there was a 50 year old woman who had moved recently from China doing the program. Imagine that - being in a foreign continent, their language is a second language and now you have to learn medical terms and everyone is half your age. She had my deepest respect.
It's hard. But well worth it to go back if it's what you want
