Once again you are wrong. So educated but so dumb!!!! I posted the AMA above 259 percentages and you chose to dispute the numbers. Now I realize why you didn't get into med school at 22 like most US Doctors. You Loser!!!!!

Dude how old are you? You sound 13. Get out of your basement and live in the real world for a bit. And you should stop insulting the guy who might save your life when you inevitably talk shite to the wrong person and get fricked up.

She also added that every Trauma doc she’s worked with has been the most emotionally cold person she’s ever met. Zero emotional reaction to anything.
The neurosurgeon who pieced my back together (after 2 orthos fricked it up) was this region's main brain trauma Dr. The guy was great and warm but at one of my routine pre-surgery visits he had to take a call about a pediatric head injury inbound and it was like he flipped the switch to a completely different person.
Because of his status and it being a 6 hour surgery he and his partner were in the OR with a 3rd in the hospital in case one of those bad cases happened. His 2 partners and a PA were the ones who oversaw my recovery. 4 years later all three of them moved to Tampa-St Pete and opened their own clinic. A few years later I had to go to the same part of the clinic and even the ortho people had changed. At some point they've just got to go home and realize going through life without emotion is not worth more than a decade or two of the high salary (a big chunk of which going to student loans and malpractice insurance.)
ETA: Completely forgot he was also part of the advisory group to the NFL when they started down the road of the speed helmets and forming the concussion protocol. We discussed it once and it was interesting how a few years later everything that they did was something I had already heard from him Conversely they ignored a lot of what was recommended for the retired players. It's why whenever they have CBA negotiations I always shake my head at the lack of gratitude some of the players have for guys who literally saved them from a life of gangbanging.

you mean like an appliance repairman "explaining" the medical field to actual doctors?

those numbers are off. just took my first job as a staff radiologist, and after interviewing with 9 groups, the average annual income is closer 750K.
other specialties are similar.

I may be misunderstanding you, but are you saying the average income for a radiologist in the radiology groups you interviewed with was 750k?

Arguing with shoestring is a huge waste of time,the dude obviously has “issues”.Retired nurse here so I don’t really have a dog in this fight but I’ll weigh in anyway.In 35 years I knew very smart Drs.in every specialty.To equate “scores” with competency in a given area of medicine,especially E.M. is stupid.The average E.R. Dr. would probably be bored out of their mind looking at rashes and pimples all day every day.Likewise the average dermatologist,no matter how high their “scores”,likely couldn’t function in a chaotic area like the E.R.The best Drs.are the ones that choose their specialties based on their interests and temperament.Some like the routine humdrum,some like high pressure areas.
It works the same way in nursing,I worked primarily in ICU.The nurses with the highest grade point averages were not always the best because they couldn’t function in an emergency.Let a patient have a cardiac arrest or develop a massive bleed of some sort and they would fall apart.
I tried different areas-dialysis,surgery,cath lab and found them all boring.ICU fit me best and I spent 31 years doing that.It was a mixed unit,I liked the variety of patients and I was blessed with the ability to function under pressure.It wasn’t the easiest job,many days I left work physically,emotionally and intellectually drained but I was seldom bored.

You posted numbers but clearly have no idea what they mean. I did not dispute any numbers from the AAMC, (though you had multiple errors attempting to copy from the page), you just don't know how to read and interpret a chart or data in general. I tried to explain it you but you continue to just throw around insults instead making yourself look foolish. Last chance, I'll try to explain it to you like a 4th grader, just so maybe you can be slightly more educated if you decide to actually look at the data. From the site(AAMC, not AMA) you attempted to quote but did so incorrectly, of the 7058 students who matched into internal medicine, 215 of them (3%) scored above 259 on both Step 1 and 2. Of the 460 applicants who applied to dermatology, 54 (11.7% of them, not 3% as you incorrectly typed) had step scores above 259 on both step 1 and 2.
215 is a bigger number than 54 (you can ask the nearest elementary school educated person if you need verification of this), so more applicants who had the highest scores sortable by any reports available, went into internal medicine than dermatology (or any other specialty). I'm quite confident an average 4th grader would understand this so I'm done dumbing it down any more.
Also, you are right, I didn't get into med school at 22. I was only 21 when I got into med school, though I had turned 22 before the first day of class. Not really sure how that makes me a loser, but given how bad you have proven yourself to be with numbers and simple concepts maybe you just think 22 is better than 21 because it is larger? I'll just have to take LSUA 75's advice and give up on trying to explain things to you going forward as you clearly have no desire to learn.

My brother is a neurosurgeon but I have no idea how much he makes. I've never asked but guessed it was high six figures.

Many have a base salary plus production bonus. Add in reimbursement for overnight call and weekends.
Not far fetched at all.

It's not farfetched to make that sure. But that is far from average.
The fastest most productive readers taking on extra weekends and calls can make that but no way is that average.
