A friend of ours from Jamaica is in Med School and was barely surviving on a stipend before Med. School. We loaned him our second car many times and fed him often.
He is at Johns Hopkins now. Doing well, he tutored my daughter in Pre-Med.
Med School is another one. You get out with a huge debt, and immediately have to intern for next to no money. It is brutal.
I am so happy I went Computer Engineering.
