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!

*Peers over tops of glasses all intelligent-looking*

Stop doing that then.

AncientSpirit · May 14, 2008, 01:12:30 PM

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."
