Hey guys,
I'm about to be a senior in college and I'm considering want I want to do with the rest of my life.. I'm really science minded and passionate about medicine, but I'm also an econ major and I'm incredibly interested in business as well. I'm trying to decide if I should go MD/MBA, MBA, or just MD. My ideal career is this:
I'd like to practice medicine for a while (a decade or 15 years) and then move into a management role. I'm not very interested in hospital administration... I'm more interested in biotech and pharmaceuticals. I'd love at some point in my career to assume a management role in one of these types of companies where I can apply my medical knowledge and experience from earlier in my career to leading a company.
Is an MD/MBA the path I should take to accomplish my goal? I've already taken the MCATs and done well and I have a good GPA, but I haven't thought about GMATs yet.
Thanks guys, I appreciate any advice . I'm definitely feeling a little lost...
