i am looking to pursue a career in the medical field, any suggestions?

I am a Senior in high school, and I would like to go into the medical field, but I don't want to spend 12yrs in college. What would you recommend for a career path? I was thinking MRI Tech. but I would prefer to make over $100,000 per year.

Any suggestions to look into would be great, Thanks!

    > $100,000 annual is pretty steep. MRI tech is not the job you want..... not to say they don't make good money, but I guess my idea of good money is different than your idea. I'll give you some recommendations, but they will require Master's degree education at least, plus internship or residency program of some kind.

    The sentence "prefer to make > $100,000 a year" kinda stopped me from telling you what career in medical field you should do if you don't want to spend that many years in college.
