No, and leave your excess 'u's behind.

Seriously though, congrats. :beer:

Well, unless you're holding your arm up into your vagina, its not really my area of expertise 😉

If by my vagina you mean your mom's, then yes.

Shouldn't you research that and find out why? 😕

No no I have. I just think about if I want to put myself through so much more schooling.

I have a desire to go back to grad school. MS at the very least. I would prefer a PhD. But even getting a PhD is a walk in the park compared with a PhD MD because of the time involvement. And it isn't just about getting the degree and then life is good. there is still a large ramp up period with getting experience. i'd be interested in clinical monitoring - especially hemodynamics. Being realistic, till I could be a pimp (ie: publish my own papers, defining the direction), it'll be 20 years when its all said and done.
Of course, it is the same period of time if I work in the industry....but I'm not going to be forgoing as much income being a student and then a post doc.

That, and, most doctors I know tell me they'd prefer their kids doing finance or engineering 😉

edit:

did you lock me? Man I was about to have some fun 🙁 mods are vigilant today
 
hmm, what residency program are you doing?
isn't intern year a bitch so far for you? I kinda miss sleep. At least i'm going to enjoy the weekend since its my first day off in 12 days.

OB/Gyn... intern year isn't too bad, I have 2 weekends off in August to look forward to... Besides, I've only worked 252.5 hours since July first so I can't complain 🙂

Stupid question: Why do they work interns like that? It seems like you would retain more information by working a schedule that lets you get some sleep once in a while.
