Re: You guys deserve better.
Not sure if you have considered the time you invest in your medical degrees.
4 years in medical school + 4 years of residency (during which you're paid ~$30k a year) and maybe another two years of fellowship ($50k - $60k).
And, finally, after 10 years after college, you becomes an attending physician and start earning the so-called doctor's salary.
A person who starts law school at the same time you start medical school will be a 7th-year associate, or even a partner already.

I don't know if it's already been pointed out, and I don't care to look, but it's Johns Hopkins, not John Hopkins. So yeah...

Re: You guys deserve better.
Interesting how upset some people get when someone tries to constructively share some words from experience, however anecdotal it may be.

Let's face it, you made a lousy flame and you failed at it. Step back, take a few breaths, consider what you did wrong, and try again later.

Re: You guys deserve better.
Speaking as a Johns Hopkins degree holder, I can say with certainty that a Johns Hopkins student would know how to spell Johns Hopkins.

Re: You guys deserve better.
I could understand your guys' criticism if I came in here to simply say "DOCTORS RULE LAWYERS DROOL :p " but that is obviously not that case. I am here saying that you guys are all very smart people and deserve better than the lousy career prospects that pursuing law gives you. I don't understand the backlash at all to be quite honest.

Don't get me wrong, you're clearly committed to the flame, which I admire. But you need to recognize failure and cut your losses.JohnHopkinsMD wrote:I could understand your guys' criticism if I came in here to simply say "DOCTORS RULE LAWYERS DROOL :p " but that is obviously not that case.

Thanks, good luck making 55,000 per year doing document review, leasing a Honda Accord, making rent pay check to pay check while I am making millions of dollars performing surgeries that save peoples lives.

I came in here hoping to be a voice for some mature, open-minded intellectuals, but instead I feel like I am in a high school chat room. Its no surprise the legal profession is so oversaturated when kids like some of you can just be given a Juris Doctor.

It is certainly not in my nature(especially behind a computer screen) and my initial intentions at all. I wanted to share an experience to be a voice of reason for who I thought would be a great of extremely intelligent young men and women. Instead I received this negative backlash.
Seriously? What are you waiting for?
Now there's a charge.
