| Is the Ph.D worth it? I've been thinking about becoming a psychiatrist. I would major in psychology, prefrably at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and then I would go to med school; and from there I would continue with my residency. All of these things add up to 11+ years of training... The starting salary in Madison, Wisconsin for a registered psychiatrist would be 175, 000. Do you think that all of this training is worth the salary? Would I have a social life if I went to school for this long?? Would I meet people? Or would I be a complete loner, and never meet a husband, friends, or have fun? This sounds incredibly silly, I know. But these are the things I worry about most when thinking about my career. |
