Thus, if you are starting your 9th year (high school Freshman) you will need to complete four years of high school, four years of undergraduate work for your Bachelors, and three to four years for your Doctorate. So, it would take approximately 11 to 12 years from the start of high school. Sounds like an eternity, but time will pass anyway. Hold on to the dream! Viper1
