Genuinely just grow up. I grew up on a council estate with abusive parents and would have been able to buy a house with mortgage at 21.

There are many things I'm not happy with in my life, but I'm actually trying to change them. For example, I wish more then anything I was born in the US. Instead of crying about the awful salaries here I'm going to work hard, make myself desirable and get a h1b.

I wanted to do medicine at 18, but despite having 4A* at a level I couldn't make a decent application cause awful GCSEs from abusive parents stopped me. Instead of screeching about how it's not fair I got a degree and will be applying 4 years late, but I'm applying.

Hey you’re the same fren applying for post grad med.
If you’re intending to move to the US post qual you’re in for a shock - you’ll end up resitting the whole USMLE with little credit for your existing medical degree.

>>15776616
yes sirs

indeed

Also, just to add to this, medical salaries are not that much greater in the US by the time you factor in tuition debt (good school req for good placing) and astronomically higher indemnity insurance purchase every single year. You’d make more working 3 days a week private in the UK if you can get it.

Looks like someone is projecting

Yeah aware of the USMLE and not happy about it, but what else is there to say? Got to do it and saw somewhere 50% of foreign grads get residency and obviously loads will be no hopers or have some obvious flaw, really doubt it will be an issue if I get the equiv of 4A* on USMLE unless standards are far higher in the US.

Really, really doubt this as long as you go for a decent paying speciality. Average salary here is apparently £80k Vs £250k in the US. This doesn't consider houses are roughly half the price for same size there, taxes are lower and generally everything is cheaper even after sales tax. At the end of the day if you're making £250k who cares about the us debt or insurance?

Obviously for people in our situation it's miles better cause you get cheap med school, followed by about 3 years less training and then the sky high salaries

I don't understand where people keep getting all these numbers. My dad made almost $900k per year before taxes and before insurance at his private radiation oncology practice. His social circle that we would have over for dinner while I was growing up was a urologist, neurosurgeon, and medical oncologist. $700k, $1.2-1.5MM depending on year, and I don't know about the medical oncologist but theres absolutely no way it was less than half a million.

This isn't even a LARP, these are the numbers you can expect for private practice senior physicians in the US. You can not expect the same numbers from a teaching hospital, institution, government/V.A., etc., however.

£80k would be NHS consultant, you’d make upwards of £200k for 3 days a week privately easily. Full private looking at £250k-£300k.

The indemnity insurance isn’t your healthcare cover, it’s your litigation cover and it’s so much higher in the US (lawyer up culture) that it all but offsets any benefit from reduced tax rates.

Multitude of other reasons you’d look to leave the UK I’d agree with, but it’s genuinely not a bum deal to stick around. Just make sure you’ve done the maths and are making the move for the right reasons.

Best of luck with exams though, hope you make it.

who pays that much to those people?

>>15777400
Don’t doubt, just curious what state?
US specialist averages are far below those thresholds even for high paying specialities like ortho.

Massachusetts. Not that you should believe internet strangers but I can say that I have personally seen his distribution checks from the practice account, and he was not lying about what he told me. The thing about some specialties is that they get paid for procedures even when they are not present. If you need radiation therapy, the physician's pay/billing will look like this:

initial meeting and consultation with patient, second meeting, treatment planning from scans, simulator, a payment for each treatment once it's all set (can be anywhere from 1-as much as 30), even though the radiation oncologist is not present during the majority of the therapy, and lastly the follow up consultations. There is also billing from consults to other departments.

I would also add that he worked from 8-8 M-F, and Sat often 9-2, except for when he would take us to synagogue.

>>15776616
Instead of that just do the needful sir and buy the many LINK cyrptoes and soon you'll have the newest Tata and blissful retirement...do the needful today sir and regrets will be none

>>15777507
Interesting, completely take your word for it.

What did you end up doing for work, fren? Just curious - I made a departure from the rest of the family and went into finance.

I took the path of least resistance by going to medical school. No bachelors degree though, in an international med school in a European country. Went right after high school. will graduate in less than 2 years. Just started 5th year.
