If you are planning to go to grad school, mind as well go all the way and get a doctoral degree. When you just stop at master's, you still apply for same jobs that you would with a bachelors degree. Often, companies prefer to hire a BS instead of MS because they dont have to pay as much. With a doctoral degree, things change. It opens up opportunities that you wouldn't otherwise have (like becoming a college professor or research director).
Not sure if that was aimed at me... but I guess thats more or less what I'm going to school for, a doctoral of sorts. Going to veterinary school in the fall, spend the rest of my life fixin and playin with the animals.
