I am curious about something. What is the rate of employment after completing residency? Is there a statistic/percentage that someone can point me towards?
I do feel a bit disappointed that a student graduating near top of their class, makes less than 100K/yr or a student such as yourself, who graduated in the top 1/3 of the class, is making GROSS 79K/yr (which means net is lower).
Don't think I would pass the physical tests =/
I calculated that for my first 3 years of practice I would have to make at least $150k per year to financially come out ahead of government paying me $79k per year and paying for half my school. This is only looking at the first 3 years out of residency. As illinigrad points out, this is due to loan interest, and even more importantly, tax ramifications.
