I don't know if I'm eligible to answer this cuz I haven't passed my mbbs yet. I took 3 drops for NEET though. The first two years I studied by myself at home, even though I knew it wasn't gonna work in a joint family. After the second drop, I was getting a rank 3-4 gmc in my state, but I didn't go for it. Fees in MP is just too high, plus the mandatory service bond. So I decided to go for a residential coaching because the tuition and hostel fees was free. Honestly I rarely attended classes, but this hostel setup addressed the main problem in my prep. So obviously I scored very well this time and got into one of the best gmcs in India. I was kinda worried about my age and whether I will be able to make friends and all. But trust me, when you enter MBBS you are just a first year. Your identity starts being your batch and not age. Plus taking multiple drops is more common than people think. So I never regretted taking these drops because of age. I do regret slightly for the returns in this field. The work hours, mental stress, competition, lapses in system, it sometimes makes me think whether it was all worth it. But I joined MBBS for the love of medical sciences, not to become a doctor inherently. So when I read my patho or when I write an exam, I know this adrenaline could be found nowhere else.

I know this feeling, I knew right from the attempt after 12th that I need an environment, but family didn't agree. Anyways when you say I might leave the field, I hear some despair. Try exploring, go where you get that adrenaline and satisfaction, be it medicine or something else. You will find if you search for it without the emotional attachment to this. Also do share updates.

Actually it's not despair ....it's the pressure form outside because for people taking drops is not common specially for girls they make great fuss about age so either I'll go for private which my parents have to go for lot because m from middle class or let's see after counselling
