A recent AAMC (Association of American Medical Colleges) report found that 25% of medical school graduates have student loans exceeding $200,000. While daunting, there are ways to manage this debt wisely so that it will not be a burden on future earnings, especially for those physicians who are not entering higher-paid specialties. 

Scholarships, debt forgive­ness, and consolidation are a few of the ways to manage student loans. In addition, decisions must be made as to where to invest extra funds — paying down debt, paying down a mort­gage, or saving for retirement?
