4 years pre-med. 4 years med school. Then there is residency which is another 4-6 years.
assuming you go straight through without any problems, you will need 4 years of college, 4 years of medical school and 3 years of residency.
ya youre looking at 2 years gen ed, at least 2 yrs pre-med, 4 years med school, and many many clinical hours which will add up to 2 years or so if you dont work. good luck if you choose to do this.
It depends on how many classes you fail. Depending on your background, study habits and academic atuitiveness, it could be anywhere from ten (If pre-coursework is needed.) to fourteen years (If you desire to be a specialist).
Pediatricians have to see 60 patients a day to make good money. Be a cardiologist, lots of bacon eating baby boomers getting older every day with clogged up tickers.
It takes approximately 12 years. which is why I changed majors b/c I couldn't see myself doing double-duty after having already put in all that time just trying to weed my way through to my high school diploma. I also didn't like the statistics that about 70% of all first year students dropped out b/c of gross anatomy. If you can do it, though, and it's your dream. go for it!
4 (or maybe 5) years to get a BS in Biology, Zoology, or Chemistry. (Better get a 4.0 and also do some volunteer work at a hospital, or for a professor or two to get some good recommendations.)
4 years in Medical School. You will have a chance to work in a pediatric hospital ward during your 4th year.
At least 2 years in a pediatric residency program, before you can sit for the board exam.
Pass the board exam and you will be a board-certified Pediatrician.
4 years of medical school and most programs are 4 years and if you want to specialize such as oncology, surgery, infectious disease, etc.then you can do additional years or a fellowship.
Until you graduate.
