[QUOTE="Bagels, post: 1116600, member: 43436"] Doctors aren't special -- (most) any college graduate will have student loans. In fact, if you compare public school graduates to public school graduates & private to private, the debt level of a medical school grad (eight years) isn't significantly higher than that of an MBA grad (six year program). This is because medical school candidates earn scholarships at higher clips than their peers & because medical school is about the same annual cost as other graduate programs -- meaning those who pursue MBA & JD are subsidizing those who pursue MD (yes, this is true). And yes, PCP really do make "that much." PCP who own their own practice earn, on average, between $300,000-$500,000 annually -- depending on how many hours they desire to put in. Young people entering the profession are increasingly opting against owning their own practice in favor of working for health systems/hospitals ... mainly because they're disinterested in working longer hours. And those people (after ten years) are still baking $250,000+. [/QUOTE]
