I would love to join the PC. I am 21, will graduate with my bachelors in social work in May of 2011. I am almost fluent in Spanish. I have no spouse/kids/other to tie me down. I think I am a decent candidate for the PC however my credit blows. By that I mean I have thousands of dollars in unpaid credit card debt, and medical bills (having no family and supporting yourself is far from cheep) So my question is, should I even bother to apply? I have started the application process but stopped once I got the the credit section. I intend on filling for bankruptcy in September, but don't know much about it and if it would help or hurt me (have not paid credit cards in almost 2 years). Any intelligent advice or thought appreciated, thank you :) -
