I have two loan offers for $10,000 to cover next year:
- Federal Direct Unsubsidized at 6.53% fixed, 10-year term
- Private Sallie Mae at 5.99% variable, 15-year term

In plain language:
1. What's my monthly payment for each?
2. What's the total I'll pay over the life of each?
3. What protections does the federal loan have that the private doesn't?
4. If I lose my job after graduation, what happens with each?
