Pros VS Cons

 So I recently did a Pros vs Cons list about the two career fields I'm thinking of going into. And when I say I'm shocked. I just wish I new about the careers of CAAs a little sooner. I'm Going to post it below. Now when I take the time and look at both lists, I can say CAA is the better option. I plan on shadowing both a physician and CAA this summer, and then I'll do another post similar to this. To see if my lists will still have the same amount of pros vs cons.

                                                        Becoming a Physician.

PROS	CONS
I get to call myself a doctor.	4 more years of schooling.
MD After my name.	Plus at least 3 years of Residency
Can open up own practice one day. Independent office.	Surgery Specialty is not guaranteed, and that would 1-2 more years of residency.
Salary of 400K+ After Residency.	I would get paid less during residency than what I make now as a teacher, working 80 hours a week.
Can work in any country I want.	Living off Loans for 4 years in medical school, because I won’t be able to work.
	I would have to struggle longer as a single mom.
	May not be able to afford rent in residency
	Working a lot of hours, always needing a nanny for Gianny.

 

 

 

 Becoming a CAA.
