Depends what country you live in and how much of a savant you are
For most people it will either be impossible or the most agonizing grind imaginable, and either way it will be very expensive
If you're an american and extremely interested in medicine and have rich parents and are somewhat of a savant, then go for it

what other field could get untold trillions of dollars of funding over the years and still have a 100% failure rate? It's the ultimate racket, meaning if OP is thinking in financial terms then yes, it's a good investment

The purpose of medicine is to provide compassion and alleviate suffering. They have a fairly excellent success rate.
