<p>How much would medical school cost totally and approximately? how much would it cost per year approximately? which is the most affordable and reasonably decent med school?
If students take loans is it easy to repay the loans? Do med students die from the sheer debt they come under?
Sorry for the whole spin of questions- I'm just curious.
Thanks.</p>
<p>The most affordable school is going to be your state school. Costs go up quite a bit for out of state or private schools. For example, I go to an out of state med school and it costs about $60,000 a year (including room/board, etc.). Its quite a bit less for the in-staters.</p>
<p>As for paying off loans... well the loan market is going through some interesting times, especially for med students. While there used to be deferrals during residency, there is now "income-based payments" or something like that. I don't really know that much about it yet - hopefully someone more knowledgeable will be along to answer.</p>
