For having such a shortage of doctors, the US sure does make it hard for hopefuls to go to med school and try and fill that shortage.

Thank you for all of your content!! I finally made it to first year of pre-med and as a low income student, this video was very helpful.

You don’t need to be rich to attend medical school but you do need to be rich or well off if you want to apply or even have a chance of getting into medical school. MCAT prep, test is ridiculously expensive. Applying is also expensive. Interviews and touring if it’s not in your area is also expensive. All of these are obstacles that shouldn’t exist.

In Spain for example, public med school, which is actually better than the private ones, costs about 2k/year so it's quite affordable. Moreover, if you are a top student you can apply for special scholarships so you end up without the need to pay anything at all

In Italy, where I live, it depends by the salary. If the family income is very high it costs around 2.2k euros per year. If parents or the student don't have an average salary and can be considered poor the amount is 600 euros per year or so, the government reduces taxes according to money income

I live in Spain, and this true, I've heard that there are scholarships for those in families who can't afford the 2k (or 20k for private schools), I'm not a 100% sure since I'm still in high school and that is true here.

Dr. Jubbal thank you so much. You always post videos with amazing timing to my current issues (with the current being finances)I recommend this channel to every student that I meet.

The cost of medical school (and education in general) in the U.S. is absurd. Where I live government-run medical schools don't charge a tuition fee and private ones charge an average of 3K USD per semester. It was quite a number of years ago but I finished med school by paying the equivalent of a dollar per semester as "miscellaneous fee".

@@kordiandziwisz2859 I think the main problem is that in the U.S. education (and healthcare!) is treated as a business rather than something that should be made accessible to everybody. No wonder Americans get saddled in debts after graduating from school or incurring an illness that isn't covered or just partially covered by insurance.

You can absolutely go to Medical school if you’re poor. My parents combined make about $70k per year. I am now a 3rd year medical student at a US MD school. I have lots of students loans, but I will make plenty enough to pay these back. Not having money is not an excuse to go to medical school in the US- that’s what loans are for 😊

FYI Sometime federal student loans are not enough to cover American medical school tuition in 2022. Most likely, you will need a private loan where as an adult you will ask your parent to cosign. Or have a spouse with a good job.

Soo the only question I have is how am I going to pay a 1600 dollar rent with no job? Even if I was tutoring how can I do it?

Sorry but becoming a TikTok influencer to pay for med school isn't responsible advice to give to premeds. Medical School is insanely expensive and there aren't any RELIABLE shortcuts around paying it like there is for undergrad (where living at home and doing community college-to-state-college can keep tuition reasonable). And no, getting into one of 3 med schools with free tuition and acceptance rates bordering on 1% isn't reliable. The truth is that medicine is a great financial choice for wealthy kids and a restrictive, youth-destroying financial decision for poorer kids. If you're broke and go to med school you can expect to be almost half a million in the hole by age 30, forcing you to waste your best saving/investing years paying off cumbersome loans and force you to defer every major financial move even longer. If you're young, broke and gifted in math/science, the cold hard truth is that it's a much better financial decision to do four years of state school and go make money as an engineer, nurse or an accountant right at 22. There's a reason why medical students are so disproportionately wealthy; med school is only a financially smart decision for wealthy kids. If you come from a poor family and will get no help paying for medical school, only become a doctor if you're absolutely positive that it's your passion and you're willing to be broke and in debt for most of your life in order to pursue it.
