Well I'm a big cheerleader for psych, and I'll refer you to my post in the summer of why psych is on the boom:
Post #177 specifically. Enjoy.
And there is also an ongoing poll right now for salary: http://ift.tt/1LzDFnp
I personally think. Its impressive that with a n=32, 40% earn >300k (25%>300k, 18%>400k).
My favorite stat is Medscape 2013 salary survey:
70% of psychiatrists work <40 hours, 90% <50 hours, but 20% earn >300k. So essentially if you work 45 hours/week you should be able to hit around 300k. Not bad for no on calls or weekends.
Aside from the $ talk, neuroscience is just exciting. And whether you like it or not, psych is hitting the mainstream, from the mass shootings in Oregon (unfortunately) to Jim Carey's wife death (sadly) to Tom Intel joining Google. Mental Health is becoming a hot topic.
Last year psych saw highest increase from 660 to 770 US MD students (13%). So I'm gonna predict this year will be 850.
For the OP, I think its too early to stress, only start sweating bullets if you don't hear anything by December. Good luck!
