The Unholy Ghost posted:Is there a school degree that lands you in a field that doesn't entirely consume your life? About 18 of the top 30 paying jobs are in medical specialties. You could argue that many of those are pretty life consuming but not every specialty is surgery and I've known several GPs and Pediatricians who enjoy a good work/life balance in addition to a general salary. Plus, having completed an undergraduate degree already, you're halfway to medical school already since most graduate entry programs require that + a decent score on the qualifying exam (the MCAT). Using your undergrad as your qualifying degree is a great way to leverage a degree in a field you either can't or don't want to work in. Anyone who laughed at your decision to get a degree in philosophy will eat their words when your philosophy degree is used as your entry point into an MD program somewhere.

I wouldn't call it an easy test but my background is in psychology; I learned enough background science to do well on admissions exams and now I'm in medical school. I have classmates with undergraduate degrees in fine arts, musical theory, and engineering in addition to the usual biomedical science grads.
