Dilema.....

I applied to RFU MS Medical Radiation Physics prgram as a backup plan to med. school., and I found out i've been accepted today. The problem is that it is a ~2year program and i'm just starting to apply to med. schools now for the 2007 class.

WTF should I do.....? I have a week to send in a deposit and intent form.

I applied without any real outside info./opinions about the program, so if anyone can give me some input that would be great.

well the program is a two years master...it u stick w/ that u can get a good job as a radiation phys... although i know of one or two kids that applied to med school after wards. U can work for a couple of years tto ( think they say the salary is ~120K). U should talk to anita the dept sec....and she can put u in touch with some student currently in the progtram so u can ask more specif questions. lemme know if u have any specific questions

i too would like to know how it works with this program. I did hear that people go on and apply to medical school after they obtain their masters and work for a bit. how did those people do it?

Hey, I also looked into the Med Physics program at Duke University. My advice to you is...........If medicine is in your heart, than wait for it. Ask yourself this question. "If I complete the MS in Med Physics program, will I still want to become a Doctor" if the answer is yes, wait for it. This may be a temporary fix for the real thing. Think about it.
