In the US, med school also requires a significant financial investment (debt) and health investment (long hours). If it weren't for the reward of helping people, I don't think many would do it. I think med school should be more incentivized.
Does anybody know how much doctors in the US typically make? Both at the start of their career and at the end of their career?
Are those numbers uniform across the country?
What about in Europe?
(Yeah I know a doctor's incentive might not be money, still)
Personally I was lucky and didn't have any debt graduating with a CS degree (actually an MS and BS), but if I were to do med school I would need to take out loans
