    Hi, I am from the Netherlands. It takes about six years to get your medical degree: three theoretical years (bachelor degree), three clinical years with internships and scientific research (Masters degree). Then you can choose your speciality, two years to be an GP and up to six years or more to be an neuro-surgeon.

    Hello guys! I'm from the Philippines. Most medical schools here have 4 years of medical school proper, plus one year of internship before taking the physician licensure examinations. In the school that I attend, however, our length is 5 years since our internship year is integrated within the school curriculum. Additionally, we are a double-degree course; we graduate not only with an MD degree, but also with an MBA degree, so we also take MBA classes alongside our regular medical subjects.
