    Pretty much the same around the world. 4 years pre-med, 2 years book med, 2 years intern, residency 3 to 7 years.
    The truth is however that medicine is a commitment to life long learning. I was sitting in my fav teriyaki place today
    for lunch and on the counter was a copy of JAAPA magazine (Journal for PAs) and there was this really interesting
    article on reconstructive surgery involving the preservation of the facial nerve (CN VI). I sat there an extra half an hour
    reading this thing. Fascinating!
