How long is studying Medicine in your country ?!

I am from AMERICA and it takes 4 yrs premedical then 4 years medical then 2-5 years residency then whatever yrs for specialization

 

4 years in school, 1 year as an Intern and another 1 year as an Extern
so total 6 years

then 12 years social service but you can pay off for that

 

Depends on the specialty you choose, most of them are 5 years long ^_^
Well, now they want to change it all, after 3 years of preclinic, 3 - clinic, they want to introduce 2 years of internship and after that 2-4 years for the specialty you choose. Oh well.

 

Ethiopia
5 years plus 1 year internship and 2-5 years of service depending on the place you re serving. the rural it is the shorter you ve to serve.
but you re only expected to serve if you can't pay the fee and its really expensive so most ppl prefers to serve.

hi, its my first post on this forum

I'm from Portugal,

It takes 6 years to get your degree, then another year which is called the "common year", while you are waiting for the results of the exam which gives you acess to a speciality, then its the speciality which can last anywhere from 3-6 years.

"Fun" Fact: In Portugal you are only considered a full fledged doctor once you end your speciality program, if you only do your six years of college+clinical and dont do speciality you are not considered an independent doctor and you can't work anywhere unless another doctor supervises you personally.
