Medical School Vs. Consulting Track

Current Biochemistry major with medical school application completed with probably a high % chance of acceptance, however currently debating if I want to live a life of studying and poverty for the next 4 years or try my luck in a medical/pharma consulting position? What can I expect from a life sciences consulting position? And how easy could a double biochemistry and psychology major pick it up?
