+1 four years of undergrad four years of med school three to four years of residency maybe one year of fellowship you seriously don't want to start off 250k in debt. As for those people saying he may change his mind about med school we don't know. OP knows her son, but starting off in debt after undergraduate is a recipe for disaster and BU is not a bad school no matter how magical Yale may be, and I say this as an Ivy League graduate.

All I know is the Harvard doctor got into the same competitive residency as the doctor from state school, a brand name undergrad gives you only a very slight edge up for med school.[/quote]

The 250k in debt turns out to be trivial for the doctors that I have known.[/quote]

Er, my pediatrician husband regrets the debt. He brings home <$150 per year which doesn't get you very far around NOVA with cost of living.[/quote]

Is that typical for a pediatrician in NoVA?[/quote]

Yes. Possibly above average for Peds and Family practice.[/quote]
