At least Humanities PhDs realize they're fucked sooner. Bio PhDs do multiple postdocs first.

Business and the specific medical field in which I work just don't gel that well... It's a miserable house of cards. Like James Watson said, "Nothing attracts money like the quest for a cure for a terrible disease."

The director level at my company is populated by tenure washouts and MDs who lack the social skills to actually practice medicine, none of whom know shit about business. Meanwhile our corporate overloads are wondering why we aren't turning a profit. ljl

Sorry I can't be more specific.

nah not actually. for philosophy initial placement in tenure track is like 70% at top programs (nyu, harvard, johnshopkins) and 10% at ttts. but bio is better than that so I exaggerated accordingly

never had any interest in medicine. i hate people (not that most doctors dont). parents also got it into me that medicine is a dying profession and reimbursements were dying.

parents wanted me to do stem phd and was always groomed in that direction, not MD. i published a bunch in UG and could have had my pick of stem phd programs, but i thought a stem phd sounded horribly boring and thought law would be fun and exciting and was a sure way to riches. also 3 yrs of lol school vs a 5-7 yr stem phd sounded very bad.

I briefly considered med school but was deterred by the clinical volunteering part. I realized I was dragging my feet about volunteering because I don't like being around sick people and I thought a requirement to volunteer was just more moronic dues-paying. I wasn't fit for medicine for these reasons.

i hated the idea of all that shit -- being around sick people, helping people, etc.

i was too naive to realize that 90% of the assholes in med school also hate people and are just in it for the $$$ and see all this shit as moronic dues-paying.

the only thing in medicine i could do would be radiology or pathology

A lot of doctors are miserable because they went against their better instincts and tried to forcememe themselves as virtuous, caring people. They would have been better off in finance.
