I want to be honest why I would like to pursue med school. I am out of undergrad and working a 30K job with my otherwise useless liberal arts degree from a top school. I would like to do better than my current situation.
I want prestige, I want job security, I want high pay, I am Indian, I don't want to go to law school, etc. The fact is though, I am really indifferent towards helping people, to the point where I REALLY could not care less. I'm also not really into the whole "make the world a better place" mentality. I don't even think I like people, and thus am leaning towards pathology or radiology which have less patient interaction (I assume). Yeah I am accumulating volunteering hours, but they are kind of a drag to be honest. If I could be/do anything in the world, it would probably involve doing nothing (ideally).
I really just want to make money and have a steady paycheck/job security. Working in the corporate world really makes you view the world differently. I am curious if anyone else feels this way or felt this way before matriculating. Thank you.
