What jobs pay 80 - 100k a year but only need 4 years of schooling.?

Category: Health Care

HannahHannah


I'm very smart and I want to have a high paying job but I don't want to spend my whole life in school. I looked into being an obstetrician but it takes 12 years of schooling. and a pharmacist takes 8. My ideal future would be to go to a 4 year college graduate at age 22 and have a nice paying job so I can start a family. If you know any jobs that require 4 to 6 years of college and earn around 90,000 a year. It would really help me out.

Since you are asking in the "Health Care" section, three careers that come to mind:

-Physician assistant

-Nurse Practitioner

-Physical Therapist

(These require at least a master's degree.)

I don't know where it is you are in the country but, generally,with just a Bachelor's degree, you won't be making that money right out of school, you'll have to gain experience.

College grads are averaging about $25,000/yr for their first jobs - IF they can find anything at all.

A very rare handful of new attorneys can command that kind of money, but they have to be in the very top of their class at the very best law schools (Harvard, Columbia, Stanford, etc). A friend's son just graduated (one of the most respected law schools in the country) & out of his class of nearly 500, fewer than 100 had found any sort of job at all. He's in the top 10, and the top 10 got jobs paying $50k or better.

With an MBA with top honors from prestigious B-schools, you might make it into one of mere handful of slots at a major investment bank. The majority of B-school grads today can't find a job.

Same song and dance all over. Top of the class, very best school, you have a chance. And school, grades, etc, are NOT enough! Appearance, extra-curriculars, contacts, connections, etc, all matter. The maitre d' at 21 had best know you by name as you go to your power lunch interview in your Brooks Brothers suit.

The best job in health care that makes the most and is in the most demand right now, is a Pharmacist, you have to take a lot of chemistry, but worth it.
