I just signed a contract today.....

and you can beat the interest by just paying more than the monthly minimum, especially if its federal loan with has a locked interest rate, which is quite low

 

Yes you are totally correct.

But for a doctor they have to have the 4 year degree and then 4 more years of med school.

So it is not uncommon to end up with a $200,000 or more note to pay off after graduating.

Sad but true.

 

yea, same with law school too. my cousin just passed the bar recently. huge amount of loans to pay back

 

Wow...thats really sad indeed.
Luckily we dont pay for college here.

 

You are very lucky.

I am sure you will make a great doctor.

Tell me about it. I went to Law School.

 

I doubt it, but thanks.

 

oi, 6 years sounds long to me to have no choice in where you work. but hey, yer life

 

It does sound long. But its okay, its a nice hospital.

 

Congratulations!!

I think its great, 6 years is not that long at all and when you're done you will have experience.

 

i wish i was so lucky lol im one of the few that droped out of school, so got stuck paying loans back and with no education......

 

Ah thanks...Just what I needed to hear.

 

Sorry to hear that.
I suppose I shouldnt be complaining then.
