Is it just me or are most PhD professors trying to get their students to pursue in PhD programs rather than medical school?
From personal experience, most professors believe that because a student expresses a genuine interest in the subject and is doing exceptionally well that the student's place is in a PhD program.
Many of my professors cast MD's in a negative light (citing statistics...MD's having high rates of depression and suicide...etc...) to try to convert their premed students.
How do you all think about this? Do you guys experience the same thing?
