Another important factor to consider, however, is time – not just the amount of time it takes to get into that career, but also how much time you put in each week to earn your salary.

  1. You did not mention the most important career in Medicine, the backbone of the health industry, the Licensed Clinical Laboratory Scientists. These are the people that work in the Laboratories, the result of their work help doctors to diagnose their patients' disease. Their average salary is $50-65 per hour, working 40 hours or more per week. Before they become licensed and work in the lab, they have to earn a four year Bachelor of Science degree in Medical Technology, studying Math , Physics, Chemistry, Biochemistry, Anatomy and Physiology, Pathology, Clinical Pathology, Bacteriology and Parasitology, and Medical Laws and Ethics. They have to get trained in the laboratory for one year before they take their State Board Licensing exam given by the Department of Health. There is a shortage of workers in this profession and people may think of choosing this exciting and interesting career. People in the Laboratories are not just Phlebotomist, these are the people that draw blood.
    Licensed Clinical Laboratory Scientists are the hidden and unrecognized heroes of medical industry.

  2. The pharmacy path is paying slightly a bit more than before, it depends on which community pharmacy you are applying to! it varies from $120K up to 144K. There are also residencies you can do after completing pharmacy school (which is very challenging to get into) but wasn't mentioned in the video!!

  3. your information is not only incorrect but has your own disinformation about nurse practitioners. I urge you to research which medical profession has better outcomes, lower mortality rates, and higher patient satisfaction. I will give you a hint it is not medical doctors.

  5. Anyone studying for Ophthalmology ? How is school going and what steps did you take after earning your bachelors ? Idk whether to just stick to optometry or continue for ophthalmology since idk how much more school differs afterwards.

  6. The data for dentists are skewed heavily by employees of Dental Service Organizations, dentists who split their time at multiple offices, ans dentists who work 2-3 days/week. Online figures rarely take into account private practice dentist owners who earn both a salary and profit from the practice itself. As well this video completely ignores the dental specialties such as Ortho, Endo, OMFS, Pedo, Perio, Anes, which each require additional training in residency programs and may be accompanied by much higher earning potential.

  8. America system creates jobs.
    Any positions from housekeeper to Doctor or lawyer or even President is the same important. Just different time in school n knowledge u can absorb…
    Study longer: solve by head
    Study short: solve by hands

    U cant work in medical fiel without housekeeper or assistants… it’s fk crazy of lacking staffs work that day…

    It’s truthly 💯 America is racist jobs level too.

  9. Also important to recognize that you can make alot more at the bachelors level as well. On night shift as an RN in the SOUTH which tends to be lower paying im making around 140K/year 2 years post grad. I work a little overtime but no where near that much. It all depends on where you work, there's travel nurses I worked with at my old job making well over 250k/yr. Most of the nurses i work with that are further along are making around 170-200k/year with little to no overtime. The only rationale for most of us to go to CRNA school is literally just so we can go to day shift and make the same money, financially alot of us are making pretty much the same. Part of this is derived from EVERYONE wanting to go be a NP or CRNA nowadays which is heavily boosting the bedside RN pay which obviously there's a MASSIVE shortage.
