[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. My argument is as follows- JD is more intellectual than MD JD has much higher salary potential JD is much more versatile - the prestige speaks for itself in many industries JD ceiling is higher - Supreme Court justices have no medical counterpart near as prestigious JDs in big law get car service, catered lunches, and suits - MDs have cabs/trains, cafeteria, and scrubs JDs are sole in their ability to practice law - MDs have DO and foreign competition JDs charge by hour - MDs have to deal with government dictated reimbursements How are docs more prestigious?[/quote] All the great perks may exist at BigLaw, which, remember, is for the top 10% of the class at the best law schools, and this may have been the case before 2008. And there are 9, count them, 9, Supreme Court justices out of the hundreds of thousands of lawyers. And charging by the hour is going away as clients are fed up with that practice.[/quote]
