About a year-and-a-half part time for prereqs, then the regulation four for medical school.  I have lots of classmates who extended one way or another (decelerate, research fellowships, externships, etc) , but I was highly motivated to get done!

Congratulations!   Not only are you ready for a career in medicine .. but a career in Hollywood.   In your SCRUBS ... in ER ... or even LOST on a island, a doctor is always in vogue.

And for CoX, practice saying this:   "Dammit, Jim, I'm a doctor not a tank."

:D
