Unfortunately, it's the same look that I have every year when this ridiculous list comes out. US News takes the bait every time. Follow the money, folks, and you'll see why this list has optometry on it every year.

it's funny that they list orthodontics as a 'hidden gem' of a career.....that's like say Adrian Petersen is a 'hidden gem' in fantasy football leagues.
I love what they comment on for orthodontist....
"One disadvantage is the amount of school required to become one: dental school followed by orthodontics school plus a residency"...like having too much training is somehow bad..."can't have too much of that learnin'"

A great top 10 career for the tens of thousands of suckers that go to private colleges to party and get a useless $80,000 art degree only to find out they are completely unmarketable in the job force.
At least a physical ed degree might land you a $20,000 job in some elementary school playing kick ball with the kiddies.
What the heck is an "Arts Administrator" anyway?

I'd love to know what "orthodontics school" is. Just goes to show you how knowledgeable the authors of these things are. Maybe oral surgeons go to "oral surgery school" before their residency, and I think endodontists go to "endodontic school" before theirs Apparently, these people are the real "brains" behind career choices these days.
Journalism is not what it was 50 years ago.

20k...haha...my neighbor is a physical education teacher and he makes at least 75k Im sure(the total outlay for his salary, benefits, retirement is easily 100k though). Varies a lot in different districts Im sure.
