Hi,
I just started a really good (and tough) MSW program. But everyone tells me that the profession is tough, causes burnout, and that the pay is terrible. My mom tells me to stick with it because "a graduate degree, any degree" can open a lot of doors. What do you all think? I have also thought about nursing, but I don't know if I can handle the pressure (it pays well, but I've heard it's extremely stressful and you have to be on your toes at all times), and of course, I'd have to switch programs.
