I also heard vet school is pretty expensive.
- wcfields 8y agoI've also heard that it's even more competitive than human medical schools.
- Retric 8y agoI hear a lot of failed vets become doctors. Veterinary school is harder to get into and their is a lot of overlap in background materials. Med school has a lot of overlap so if somone desideds to swap carriers it’s an easy transition into a high paying job.
- GlenTheMachine 8y agoThis may well be true. While there are hundreds of medical schools in the United States, there is only one vet school per state. And some, like Virginia and Maryland, combine - so there are in fact only about 30.
- thaumasiotes 8y agoCausality can't run from vet school being expensive to veterinary practices being profitable. It can only go the other way - profitable practices lead to school being expensive.
- dragonwriter 8y ago> Causality can't run from vet school being expensive to veterinary practices being profitable. Yes, it can: expense of getting into the field limits competition. Now, long-term steady-state eventually the market should adjust so that the people are willing to pay the up front cost because of the actual rewards, but real meaningful effects are often not long-run steady-state effects.
