The answer is if you want to be a consultant get an MBA. If you want to be a doctor, get your MD.

Do you have the pre-recs for med school - physics, chemistry, biology, calculus? Are you ready to study for the MCAT for 6 months? Incur $300,000+ in debt, another $60K+ for the MBA? Spend the years as an intern/resident making around $35K? Study and pass the boards? By the time you do all this, you could just have made partner. I have many, many friends who have completed medical school and it's an emotionally devastating slog. It's not just the financials you need to ask about. If you wouldn't be happy just being a doctor, then you probably shouldn't go to medical school.

My GF is getting her MD/MBA. It's tough but not the worst thing in the world. I read something like 60% of Stanford med grads didn't plan to practice, but imo it'd be stupid to get your MD and not practice even for just a little. If you want to stay strictly in business don't bother with the dual degree.

You read wrong. 68% went on from medical school to residency. Meaning 3/10 didn't do a residency. And Stanford was 117/123 in that ranking. That doesn't include providers who took a gap year and then went to residency. The annual match percentage is in the high 90s.

With the ish that’s going on with ACN being disguised as “normal attrition”, I’d be happy to do a resume review for those affected.

When I moved in-house a year ago as a BigLaw mid-level, I took a 45% pay cut, far more than I was comfortable with (although I was fine with a 20-30% cut). I took the job because it was a great role and I was focused on making the jump in house and developing the skills I wanted, which required me moving away from my firm practice area. Now that my year-end review is coming up, how do I ask my company for a significant pay raise (not just a 2-5% inflation-matching raise)?

I’m in interviews with a few companies. It was initially to see what was out there to negotiate my pay. Now, I’m seriously considering leaving my current company because of what one of the prospect companies represent: everything I want in a company/role. (Plus they reached out to me) AND they will pay me almost double what I’m currently making annually, put me in a position to advance (so many options!!!!!) and allow me to move/travel when I get ready to.

What should I do? Guidance please!!!

Hello everyone !
I just graduated and I have made it pass the third interview which was a two part working interview that I will receive compensation for. I have BS degree in healthcare professions and wanted to know if 40k is too low of salary to start off as a compliance officer for a pharmacy that provides discounted medications. My first 3 months will be training for my position but I will be paid the same. The job hasn’t offered me a dollar amount yet and I want to be best prepared.
