Are there ways to pay off your student debt through medical school?

I know it can get expensive and medical school can cost a lot of money, but is it true that you can go to rural places or even other countries to pay of your student debt? #hospital-and-health-care #medicine #doctor #college #career #career-counseling

Agree with previous answer. I would like to add that you can earn some money during training particularly later in residency.

Working during medical school is all but impossible. Most students take out loans.
I only knew 2 students who worked. One was a tax accountant before medical school and worked in April of our 1st and 2nd year preparing taxes. The other worked in valet parking and combined his workout with his job by running between cars while parking.
A job would interfere with your education and lower your grades.
After medical school, the next step is residency. You will be paid a salary by your residency program. During my residency I was able to moonlight as a physician on my weekends off, but that was 20 years ago and I am not sure if that is still possible.
