$295,000 In Medical School Debt... Why do medical schools charge students so much money?

Rob Centor:

"Why do medical schools charge students so much money? It was not this way when I went to medical school. I paid an average of $1000 per year in the early 1970s.

Using an inflation calculator, that would become around $5000 per year in current dollars. Yet that same school and most state schools charge 3 times that much."
