Hi everyone,
I'm an MS-IV who will be matching into Neuro this year and am trying to weigh PSLF vs private refinance for loan repayment. I know the neuro job market is hot right now, but unfortunately I don't have a good grasp of the availability of academic or non-profit jobs after residency which are PSLF compliant. I was wondering if anybody on here could help shed some light on how easy it is to find these opportunities once I'd be done with residency? So far it seems like WCI's advice on trying to go for PSLF and invest in a side fund if it goes belly up seems wisest, but I don't want to commit 4+fellowship years into PSLF to find I have no eligible non-profit jobs once I'm done training.
There is also an additional confounder insofar as my wife is also interested in academics (different field than neuro), but she is also willing to practice in private practice/groups if that's how the cards fall (she will luckily have no debt). I imagine having two people look for an academic jobs further narrows your choices.
Thanks for any advice y'all can provide!
