Medical school is extremely rigorous with little time to do anything especially work; then how does one pay for things. I understand that the majority of students take loans for tuition, room and board and books/supplies. What about miscellaneous things like movie tickets, birthday gifts for loved ones, toothpaste, beauty products, etc. Do students really take out loans for thongs such as these?
Do a lot of students survive on savings? Savings from where? If most of these students came straight from college when did they have time to accumulate savings? Some are married and they have a spouse to pay for things but what about us straight from college kids? Who do you guys survive? Is it possible to work 1 day a week on med school, after all a little goes a long way.
What are your thoughts and how did you survive financially?
