How Long to Become a Doctor?👴🏻👵🏽 This is How OLD You’ll Be…

[@MedSchoolInsiders]

How old will you be when you become a doctor?

[@FIFASINCE2003]

The time will pass anyway. You will get older anyway. You might as well be older doing something you love.

[@do3am167]

FACT ❤️‍🔥

[@thefenerbahcesk4156]

Lmao. I wish I was doing "something I love." When you grow up in a poor immigrant family, this is the career you're pushed into. Sure, I thought it was kind of cool as a 10 year old kid, an 18 year old freshman, even a 23 year old grad student, but now as a 26 year old M4, I absolutely hate all of medicine and want to retire as soon as possible. So basically the prime years of my life are gonna be spent torturing myself through work to get a good retirement, but by then I'll probably be a jaded, hurt, difficult person to be around. Such is life.

[@jeromeleesang942]

I finished residency at 27 in IM (a long time ago), you do not need to finish college to medical school but probably should as a back up. My sister went to medical school in Canada in the early 80s and finished residency at 23 in family medicine so it can be done much quicker depending on what you want to do. I think the cost of medical school in the states is getting out of hand. One of my daughters is now a 3rd year medical student and has several hundred thousand dollars in debt already.

[@itstoasty7089]

I thank the Lord Jesus Christ I started college in highschool. I’m going to finish my bachelors at around 21-22, and medical school I would finish at around 25-26. Perhaps I’ll finish young, Lord willing.

[@yusufabulouz7525]

I am 22 years old and close to 23, and I hate degrees that dont make me money, and I hate the thought of having debt for religiously based reasons. So i am taking nursing right now. I will finish RN in 3 years, so i will be 25 study the MCAT and working as an RN, which will take a year to have a Bachelors (BSN) and my MCAT score at least a 515 or 520 maybe this process will take 2 years. Then i will apply and maybe get in if, after many tries, i dont get in great. I am still an RN and really can keep trying as long as i want. Or do Plan B, which is flight RN to CRNA. I will still be above 100k and, or even more. Total years = if It takes more than one year to pass the MCAT with a desirable score, then I will be 31 one or so after med school or if it takes only 1 year then i will be 30. Basically, i have the rest of my life after 30 or 31 to practice medicine at the level of a physician. That sounds great to me.

[@JordanSketchesArt]

This is really cool but im intrested is biochem and biotechnology so cause being a doctor takes so much time and that scares me but hopefully your doing well now.

[@Hi-qt2nj]

I have some news for you buddy. You forgot the part where you go back to a university to do your medical pre reqs like (orgo with lab, biochem, etc.) that takes 2 years.

I’m from india, I’m starting my medical clg next month at 17 yrs old, mbbs course is about 5.5 yrs here so I will be 25.5 yrs by then, if I start my pg the next year then I will finish at 28, further practices and specialisation will take another 5 yrs, so I will be 33 by then, married, having kids, but still have underpaid earnings and having stressful life 😂 but it’s all worth it cuz i would enjoy the process and maintaining a work-life balance :)

[@Over-ue4qf]

This is very helpful I’m in community college cause im still deciding if I want to be a attorney or a pediatrician so this is helpful to know what I would get into if I were to go into med school

[@MedSchoolInsiders]

Thanks for your comment. Glad it could help you on your journey!

[@owenrthornton]

I’d honestly day from third year med school and on you basically are starting your training clinically. It’s really not so bad. Or say internship year after med. that’s just 8 years. Only 6 years of pure classroom learning. Which yeah is a lot compared to no education, but it’s a specialized field and it can be fun and enjoyable if you actually like the content, which I hope you do if you do it as a career

[@ManahilBaig-f8b]

Right now I am a grade 9 student in Germany and I want to study medicine i am 15 years old and I want to complete my medical degree at the age of 25 . The subject I am interested in is psychology and neurology. This video helped alot thank you and keep making these kind of videos for us.\

[@Dragonphoenix25]

We have a similar general structure, but shorter process in Canada. After high school, which last 5 years, not 6, so at 17 years old, we get to college. College is 2 years for programs leading to university like sciences, so leaving at 19. Then it's medical school, between 4 to 5 years depending on the program, getting a MD at 23-24 years old. Then residency, between 2 to 6 years depending on the medical field, becoming board certified between 25 (family medicine without a specialized Emergency training year) to 30 years old (for a 5 years med school + 6 years residency). Then optional fellowship depending on practice goals between 1-3 years added on top.

[@vystical625]

That might be true for Quebec, but most provinces are after a 3-4 year undergrad. So most start MD at 22.

[@kirtisingh3540]

In our country we start med school at age 17 .....it takes 12-14 years to reach the post you mentioned above. What I don't like about your or mine country is that they start at very early age.......these kids don't even know what they're getting themselves in. 😢

[@splash0114]

Is it even worth it to start my med school journey at 28? 😢

[@justadecentdude]

I started 4 years of Med School at 32. It was the right thing for me

[@mrmcbeth]

I started at 29. I wouldn't worry too much about it. I would worry more about the logistics of starting and finishing.

[@n70199]

Some day, you are going to be 50, whether you become a doctor or not. What do you want to be when you are that age? I finished my residency and fellowship at 34 which seemed old at the time. It wasn’t.

[@rishel8738]

Unfortunately, the cost and time commitment are why I’m now leaning away from MD/DO. Nothing is impossible if it’s what you’re truly passionate about, but it definitely de-incentivizes older students and/or female students who want children.

[@7Bloodfire]

If I started next year, I might be done with it by age 54 at the latest. :(

[@hurricane_heart]

it is so much better in Pakistan as u can get into medical school right after high school, that means one can become even a neurosurgeon before becoming 30

[@_Baeedits]

It does depend on your age rn. I will be about 26/27 to become a family medicine doctor, I did skip a grade and is working to get my gpa up

[@loann571]

So I just turned 16, 2 weeks ago and this is gonna be my last year of high school 😢

[@7Bloodfire]

I'm curious if you help people figure out how to pay for it all, too. I'm several years after high school (finally have my house paid off so we have a stable place to stay), and ready to take a deep dive into college. I want to be an anesthesiologist. I've wanted that career path for ten years now, but haven't been able to afford it on my own, or had the time to focus fully on school until now. How do you pay for college if you have nothing but a low-paying job that barely gives you $13/hr, lol??? (

[@mohamadmwassi8216]

A faster way is going to be an IMG who applies for family medicine residency which takes 9 years 6 years of med school then 3 residency

[@junior230]

I took three years of gap year after High School, and I am a foreigner, so it's more complicated to get into medical school. I'm laughing, desperately, a lot because I'll leave college at 39. (I wanna be a neurosurgeon)

If you are older when you start(26+) then it all comes down to the money. Is it worth it to you to be staring down 40 years or older when you finally start making doctor money? If you will have loads of debt the answer is likely no.
