I'm just sayin....
According to the U.S. News and World Report, genetic counseling is one of the best career choices of 2009.
"U.S. News has plowed through hundreds of careers, looking for the jobs with the best outlook in this recessionary economy (and beyond), the highest rates of job satisfaction, the least difficult training necessary, the most prestige, and the highest pay. These careers have staying power: They're smart moves now, and they'll be smart moves for years to come."
Here's a snippet of what they said about it. "Some 90 percent of genetic counselors are satisfied with their job. And it's not surprising. Compared with other healthcare professions, your work tends to be more rewarding. You're not expected to cure difficult diseases but merely to help a person explore options and provide support. So most of your clients are pleased with what you've done. Also, you're not forced into 12-minute patient appointments. A session with a patient or family member often lasts an hour. Plus, the job market is growing."
That gives me hope because right now there is not much hope in my academic and professional life as finals are rapidly approaching and I have midterms and term papers due left and right.

woah woah woah! That is so cool that your career was on there! but i may have to argur that my job will be way better than yours...(when i finish my degree in, oh say, 10 YEARS! love you kiki! oh, chet says to just drop your comp off at our house anytime, he would love to fix it for you. no sunday dinner = sad day
i just looked at the list and audiology is on it! (although i may change my mind a dozen times before i finish my degree!)
Your job will never be better than mine...I currently have the greatest job on earth. Besides the poop and puke and what not. Oh, and the pay is lousy. Okay, never mind. Stick with your current plan. My job is really hard!
