An MBBS would perhaps be a more lucrative (and personally rewarding profession) if one aspires to and goes on for specialisation. Creative has rightly pointed out that Doctors earn more than accountants in the West. (A general presumtion). I must say I had a couple of colleagues with me in Articles who had left MBBS- Third year and joined to train as a CA.
However, what intrigues me is have you considered what your apptitude is, would you be more suitable for a medical career or dor one in Accounting/Finance. These are two entirely different areas! Its important that you have the right apptitude for the career you choose. If you have matching skill sets with the career you choose, you have more chances of excelling in it, making more money than your peers and enjoying it as well. Give a second thought on these lines as well.
