[QUOTE="TheBigNewt, post: 1643483, member: 380756"] Here it's similar: 4 years college, bachelor's degree. 4 yrs med school, medical doctorate degree. 3-5 years "residency" in your specialty (3 yrs internal medicine was what I did, at a different university from the medical school). Then you would be a specialist in internal medicine, emergency medicine, pediatrics, Ob/Gyn, ENT, radiology, whatever. Then we can subspecialize and do a "fellowship" (mine was cardiology, 3 more years). Others include endocrinology, rheumatology, pulmonary, GI, oncology. You pay to go to college and med school. A "cheap" state university college of medicine costs $30,000/ year, private schools twice as much (no scholarships). But you earn a living wage as a resident and fellow. Then a lot more after that.
