Jobs between undergrad and med. school

[ezmoney1]

I graduated in May and am currently working full time in a research lab, but my employment here ends on August 5. I plan to get married next summer and really need to save some money before starting med. school. Would adcoms look down on me for finding a job that pays better such as one in sales, etc. since I need to save for me and my future wife.

Any comments are appreciated.

I think that if you explain your situation, they would completely understand why you took a different job.

No, I don't think they will. They hardly even asked me about what I have been doing during this last year and my situation was almost exactly like yours. Saving money for the wife and marriage. I think as long as you keep up your service activities and volunteering, you'll be fine.

Congrats on getting married, its a great institution. I fully endorse it.

Nope.

You have to eat and pay rent. Your future wife will appreciate the nice ring you will but here with all your earnings!

Keep up your volunteer work.
