Working while in medical school
Hello, What kinds of jobs have you been able to find in med school that pay moderately well? I'm entering med school in the fall but I will only have to take Anatomy and a patient-physician class so I have plenty of time to hold a job. I pass out of the other classes by doing well in a special masters program. I have been looking for jobs this summer near the med school, hoping to continue with that job in the fall. Most of the jobs listing that I come across are medical technologist and medical transcriber position. How long does it take to become a certified medical technologist or medical transcriber with a MS degree? What are some other jobs that are suitable for med students? Thanks.

Its good to know that you are doing well in your academics.Med school requires you to attend all practicals and be thorough with the theory.I suggest, you take up a moderate timed job that will not affect your academics.Above all, field related is preferable.If i was to choose, i wud go along with Medical Transcriber job. Because there's ample of opportunities and you get to learn a lot of things from medical speciality
