you really want to be a surgeon.... good for ya

ok, to start with. AFTER the 4 years of undergraduate study, then you can start med school

med school is 4 more years. if you can get your parents to pay for it, lucky you. otherwise expect at least $150,000 in debt from medical school. but the interest can put you over the 200k mark

surgical residency is anywhere from 5 years and up,it all depends on what kind of surgeon you want to be.

otolith is correct, the debt and time are some of the least important factors

otolith....gotta love that pic....baseball bat or dashboard vs face?
