If I entered med school at 21, could I be a surgeon at 30?

Question

considering residency, internship completed, those bills (some) paid off, and so on.

Answer 1

Dude- how are you getting into med school so early?

Answer 2

Well, med school is a four year program, and residency for a sergeon is going to be about 7 years, so 21+11=32. Not quite. Good luck!

Answer 3

Class of 2010

I also want to enter med school, and I know it will take some time.

First studying pre-med will take about 3-4 years, then medical school is about another 4 years. That will lead to around the age of 28.... then internship and that depends on what you internship in.

Example: Family Doctor, Surgeon, Radiologist.
