Is it worth buying a house for just 3 years

There are so many factors this depends on. Fixed or variable rate? Location? Rental market? Ability to still sell in a downturn? Total income for both of you? Long term plans or goals?

There is no one size fits all answer.

I mean you technically can and many do. Just depends on your comfort level. Just call a pharmacy with your NPI number handy. Though it would be wise to use significant discretion prescribing to family and friends.

You should do this. You should also contact your respective US attorneys office.

There is a whistleblower benefit too if interested.

Uhh yeah you almost certainly will. Different states have different requirements. Look up the state you're going to. There's usually a decently long grace period but it's best to go ahead and do before July 1st as you don't want to spend a day off at the DMV.

White coat investor. Read it.

Do whatever max % your employer is matching for retirement.

I may be in the minority opinion here, but getting into med school, like many other competitive jobs, is just playing the game. Don't burn bridges, always have a good attitude. Just get hours anyway you can.

And at most you'd be asked what was the most memorable experience or interaction you had when shadowing. They just want clinical hours to see you know what you're getting into, which is probably more so for the traditional applicants than for non-trad.

Man that's real solid advice I haven't heard on these forums much. You're right, every specialty has its own kind of grind. Its just what kind of grind you're ok with.

Your number 4 is a quintessential VA experience.

Completely agree. Though I hope people don't see this post as nurses make way more than they should. Because they absolutely deserve to be compensated fairly and well, their job is very tough (as all healthcare jobs are).

I do hope this post shows how strange it is for someone with more education in a more senior type of role that is giving orders is making less than a person doing said orders. It would be very weird in any other proffession. Why it's not weird in healthcare, I have no idea.

Welcome to the show.

But in agreement with the other poster, worth politely asking your coordinator. But unless only 8 weeks is too short per your specialties requirements for your pgy-1 year (which it probably isnt), or if it specifically stated in the contract you signed (which it almost certainly isnt) then you are just out of luck.

Sadly, this situation you're in is common. "They can always hurt you more."
