Dear SDN members, my situation is as follows. I am 28 soon to be 29 , a US citizen, lived abroad and did medical school abroad. Due to a host of factors:
1.Annoyed that some states do not recognize school.
2.Annoyed that if I ever want to move to western Canada ( where my mom/step dad/sister live) in the future, my degree is not accepted but a US degree/residency (with varying red tape) is taken at par
3. residency competitiveness
4. FMG stigma.
I am planning on going back to school at 28/29, and will be about 33 when I am out, and 39 when I earn full salary, is anyone here in this situation?
[I am not all about money but it depresses/hurts me that I will be old before I can even see some monetary success, I cant imagine being poor
till near 40! Adding salt to the wound, my friends will be 150K+ at 32-33
and I might have to deal with a a resdent salry at 37 with a child possibly on the way. ]
