Thanks for your response!
A few programs have terminal master's, including stanford and northwestern.
There are a number of reasons why I feel some grad school is a great decision.
1.) Neuroscience is something i am very interested in
2.) I could get into grad fairly easily, whereas with med i'm 50/50 because of poor volunteerism
3.) Not entirely sure med is right for me, and not sure being a professor/researcher isn't (I love the idea of teaching and discovering things, but there's a part of me that still desires a high salary)
4.) Extra time to think
5.) Shows maturity, and hopefully great recs/publications
6.) Time..I would likely have to defer for a year to earn living $ and grad school seems to be a way to earn and enjoy the work
Maybe these points are way off base. Hopefully you can share some wisdom/experience!
