I am in my 2nd semester of Freshman year right now and up to this point I have been strictly thinking of dentistry. Recently though I am having second thoughts and am struggling to choose between the two. I want a career that I enjoy going to work everyday, don't have crazy amounts of stress, good lifestyle, and good money. Dentistry definitely provides that and Medicine depending upon which field I go into also provides most of that.
I know I would enjoy both equally and the reasons separating the two are the superficial reasons(money, lifestyle, schedule). I think I would make more money in medicine, but it would be harder work, though I think I could work less and make more in medicine. I just don't know which to pursue. Any help in comparing the two would be greatly appreciated.

NVM, if I could delete this thread I would. I know what I want to do.
 
it sounds like your question is the dichotomy between money and time?

Follow your interests, M.D./DDS?
 
Sounds like you should go dentistry
