> Yeah, remove the limiter, and how long does it take to make a doctor? Undergraduate entry medical degrees in Ireland are either five or six years with summers off and ample other holidays. Post graduate is four years like the US but pre-med doesn’t exist. You have to learn the necessary content yourself ahead of time and if you fail the exams that’s your problem. You can get in with a degree with no science content whatsoever as long as you have high enough grades in your Bachelor’s. I believe during WWII the US ran some schools at three semesters a year so people were done in two years, eight months. A newly graduated doctor then has residency, a year of 60-100 hour weeks of on the job training. If some of the generalist training was cut you might be able to get someone able to do routine medical care in their specialty, like a nurse practitioner in three years. |
