12 years\n4 years for undergrad/pre-med, Degree-BS, majors include biology,  biochem or chemistry. Some univ. offer courses esp. for pre-med students. To get accepted into a good medical school you need to get good grades during your under years.\nAfter you are accepted into a medical school, depending on your own effort and courses you choose, generally speaking, it may take about 5 years to get your Doctor of Medicine degree (ranges 4-6). But if you want to be a heart surgeon you'll need another 2-3 years of training, total about 12 years. Residency does not count as schooling except for the part you do for a specific class. During residency you are a doctor (unexperienced, though).

The Forensic Science Degree can take you anywhere from 2-4 years, depending on if you are going for a BS or a MS. You could not do both jobs because a) the time each job takes and b) there could be a conflict of interest depending on what kind of law you were doing. Crime scene investigations and forensics are linked. The forensics portion usually requires you to have some science background (Biology, Chemistry). CSI's don't necessarily need this. Hope this answers your question.

Premed - 4 years\nMed (DO) school : 4 years\nFP residency : 3 years\n\nThere are a lot of good DO schools.\n\nTo get into any graduate med school (DO/MD), you have to do VERY well in your premed courses. For MD school, you need the MCAT exam, I'm not sure about DO school.

An Associate of Arts degree is built around a two-year degree plan. You can typically take a heavier load of courses and finish the degree in less than two years, if you have the finances and schedule to allow it. Taking summer classes, weekend classes, and mini-mesters (usually 5-week long courses) can also shorten the time to complete the degree. Check online course catalogs and class schedules for more information.

You have to already have your BS degree in one of the science.You then must enter dental school, and finish the 4 year course to graduate with a DDS, or DMD degree. Then you got  to intern as medical doctors do (at least 1 yr.).  You must also pass the state licensing board to practice.You may be looking at least 5-7 years of hard work and studying, depending on your education credentials you now possess.

It depends.  Some masters degrees involve only 36 credits of class work.  Going full time, one mightbe able to do that in a year.  Some masters degrees involve significantly more credits.  Others involve writing a masters thesis.  So these will take longer.  I'd say on average 2-3 years.

An Associates Degree (in the Arts, Sciences, Fine Arts) takes two years.  Usually only junior/community colleges offer it as a degree.\n\nYou can also pick up professional certifications (IT networking, medical technician, electrician) from vocational schools or community colleges in 1-2 years usually.\n\nIf the job you want requires a Bachelor's though, you're probably going to have to get it one way or the other (online courses or evening from an accredited university might be the way to go).  Co-op's are available at a number of corporations so you can complete your studies over time and work with them in the interim.

When you get out into the "real" world, and begin to develop a career, you will be starting from zero.  You will not have all of the subtle knowledge that involves your field of study until you actually get out there and practice it.  Rules change in the world over time, and your piece of paper, simply because you have one does not mean you will know more than someone who has no degree yet has worked in your field of study for many years.  A 4 year degree is not as prestigious as it used to be, if I were you I'd hang in there for a Masters.

That would vary widely based on where you are, and what type of organization you work for (private vs. public hospital, insurance company, etc.)  Also, with an associate degree, you're not going to get far, you'll eventually need a bachelor's or even higher.

Yes, you can become an RN through a two year associates degree program. It's commonly referred to in the medical field as ADN, that's associates degree in nursing. Or you can opt for a four year bachelors degree program. Other good health care fields that I know of that are associate or two year programs are for respiratory therapist, lab technicians, x-ray techs, pharmacy techs....I'm sure there are plenty of others.

4 for undergrad 2 for masters and then i think 2 more for PHD and then you have residency where you learn on the job. i think its about 10 years. get your math and chemistry up as high as you can in highschool to make life easier. and try and take as many Advanced Placement (AP) cources as you can you can cut out at least a semester of course work if you can pass them. and start studying organice chemistry now. if you really want to get ahead of the game you will go down to your local college at the end of the semester and ask if they are keeping the same organic chemistry book for next semester if not you can pick one up for a couple of bucks and if they are you can still ask students selling back their books if you can buy it instead of them selling it back. thats a real easy way to get up to date text books at a low price. but you will be fine as long as you talk to your counselor and have a plan in mind you will do fine.

You need a college degre, which usually takes about 4 years.  You then go to medical school, which is another 4 years.  Then you have a residency, which varies depending on the program.  It can take 3-5 years.\nYou will need to take sciences classes to get into medical school.  Biology, chemistry, physics, and calculus are required by most medical schools.

To get your M.D. or D.O. you need a minimum of 8 years of school, four years of undergraduate and four years of Professional (medical) school. In very rare occasions, you can be accepted to a medical school before earning your undergraduate degree, but this is extremely, rare (I mean extremely).

Usually Associates degrees and Bachelors degrees are completed at different types of institutions.  There are a few exceptions but usually Associates degrees are completed at 2 year colleges such as Community Colleges and Bachelor's are completed at 4 year colleges (FIT in NYC does both in the field of fashion).  You might want to do the Associates first and then transfer to a 4 year college for the Bachelors.  Where you will look might depend on where you currently live and how willing or able you are to travel.  \n\nIf you are interested in New England you might want to look at Johnson and Wales University in Rhode Island http://www.jwu.edu/, they offer culinary arts and a number of other interesting programs.  They also are one of the few universities that offer associates and bachelor's (also masters) degrees.  They have other campuses in FL and CO etc\n\nGood luck
