MichiganGeorgia,
I believe that here we are asked about OUR PERSONAL story/opinion.
I apologize for believing differently than you do.
mcat2,
yes, I agree “$25,000 a year for living expenses seems to be about right.” However, it is based on our D’s Grad. school experience, not UG and also she was living in one of the cheapest places in the country. For somebody in NYC or LA, I imagine that living expenses are nuch higher. We include everthing in this category, like clothes, car insurance,…etc.
So, we are looking at about $2k added to our monthly income starting in July. YEYEYE, D. got her first MD badge for her first year residency, starting on July 1, and first time in her life it says “resident”, not “medical student”
