    are you for real ? the program is 4 years (every program)

    Actuall you can do in 2 years, how ? take year 1 & 2 together and year 3&4 together, so save yourself 2 years

    Spartan is 9 semesters, 4 basic science, approximately 5 semestersof clinicals. So theoretically "it is" 3 calender years. However, before students begin clinicals , most take off 3 months to write USMLE step 1. Also, during basic sciences and clinicals some students may take time off because it is a great deal of work.

    And thats true about McMaster, there med program is 3 years.

    It is 3 years, but without any summer breaks or time off at all, just a few weeks each year.

    You would do 20 months on the island, and 2 years of clinical rotations.
