D
-4 year of undergrad
-4 years of medical school
-3-6years of internship/residency
You need to score high on MCAT during undergrad
You will need to pass USMLE step 1 and two part USMLE step 2 boards during med school
You need to complete USMLE step 3 (2day exam) during residency
Pass medical license exam and get license - maintain license by year educational Credits and you retake your board exam every 10 years.
