How many years do you have to go to school to be a dr?

Answer 1

To be a Medical Doctor, a physician, you must complete high school (12 years), obtain a bachelors Degree (4 years), obtain a Medical degree (4 years), complete an internship (1 year) and a Residency (1 years), for a total of 22 years of school.

The Residency may be considered something other than going-to-school and the internship may be more like an apprenticeship than formal schooling. In addition, there are some programs that combine the Bachelors degree with the Doctoral degree and complete the whole in 6 years instead of 8. So the years of schooling might be reduced to 18 by some counts.
