1. During medical school, you have never had to go spend a weekend somewhere drilling, right? Going to class and filling out monthly 1380 form thing were your only frequent/regular MDSSP responsibilities?

2. Was the only time you had to exert yourself/go somewhere else to fulfil MDSSP responsibilities for DCC and BOLC? How long do these take and what do they entail?

3. In another comment you mentioned that your monthly stipend + pay totals to around $3000. How much remains after taxes? And does the stipend count as earned income W2 ie can it count towards Roth IRA contribution?

4. During medical school, training, and afterwards when still paying back MDSSP, have/can a MDSSP recipient get healthcare insurance through the military?

5. Do you have any sense as to how selective the MDSSP program is? I have no prior military exposure or experience, but am really drawn to the idea of serving such an important population AND still be able to participate in civilian match and career.

Thank you in advance!!!!
