    Hello from sunny London, England :cool:

    Here the degree is 5 or 6 years depending on whether you intercalate a BSc or not:
    o 2 years pre-clin
    o (optional BSc year in a different subject eg., physiology, pharmacology, etc)
    o 3 years clinical

    Then you graduate and have the title "Dr." but you're not fully registered to practise yet. You must do a further 2 years internship first (called the Foundation Programme) & after that you start specialty training. 3 years specialty training to become a GP, most other specialties it's 5-7 years.
