<prompt> Human: Currently 200k in debt for pharmacy education. Looking to switch professions and pursue medicine. I have spent much time with doctors and pharmacists in different setting and confirmed what I had been thinking for the past couple years, that Id much prefer to be a physician. Have the GPA, extra curriculars, etc., pending MCAT I may be able to get into some medical schools and pursue my passion. The only thing holding me back is my pharmacy school debt. Im unsure if it would be incredibly stupid and future crushing if I spend 4 more years piling on debt to work with a residents salary for 3-7 years before having the opportunity to earn a reasonable salary. If I could go back I would certainly pursue a much cheaper four year degree, but considering the situation I am in any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.  <response>: Assuming you get in, how much debt will you be in total include living expenses before you start your residency?-How long have you been working as a pharmacist?-I honestly cant believe youre actually considering this at all. You have 200K in debt and essentially that is waste if you pursue an MD. What do you think is going to happen to the 200K if it goes unpaid for 4 years at a minimum.
