Not only is it harder to get into vet school than med school, vets have a lot more to learn (i.e. numerous different animal's physiology, etc.). Doctor's can charge more for what they do because insurance companies help cover costs and people don't directly feel the effect of the cost of a procedure, where they would in veterinary medicine.
Sugar gliders make excellent pets - especially for those who like odd hours of the night (they're nocturnal). My gliders love to race around the room and run up and down my arms as I'm typing.
However, you should put a decent amount of research into them before getting any. They have special housing and dietary requirements. Here are some useful links - www.sugarglider.net and www.isga.org
