RE: The ridiculous expenditure of getting into medical school
I hear what you're saying but I wouldn't want any Tom, Dick or Harry having a go at making me well. I want the best, the most committed individuals only. Complete your course and you'll not be poor. Sure, you may struggle for a while having to borrow lots off banks / family etc but if it motivates you to do well in your studies, you'll be all the better a medic for it.
Good luck.
I completely agree, but there are people who don't have those kind of luxuries such as borrowing from family or even banks, and application fees/MCAT fees aren't things you can take out a student loan for if you are borrowing.
At the end of the day I'm just trying to make the point of how finances shouldn't be a major determining factor in who becomes your doctor!
