I have a 3.6 cGPA, 3.3 sGPA, and 33 MCAT. My primary has been verified, and USUHS is one of my top choices. I have a cousin who served for 8 years in the Army.
Based on 2014 data, here's what I know of USUHS pay.
-You get approx. $2,100 tax exempt allowance (housing and food) per month
-You get paid $2,900 a month base pay, subject to normal federal and state tax rates
-At a 20% tax rate, you take home approx. $2,300 a month of base pay
-Your combined monthly take-home pay is around $4,400, am I correct?
In the civilian sector, to have a take-home monthly pay of $4,400, you'll need to make around $70,000 a year gross.
This is obscenely generous.
