Hello Medico,
It takes around 6 years for a 17–18 year student who has finished intermediate / + 2 to complete MBBS if everything goes right.
Once you finish MBBS, you need to appear for a competitive exam in the form of NEET-PG / AIIMS / PGI etc to secure a seat in the General Surgery residency / postgraduate program.
It takes 3 years to finish this course.
Once you are through, most surgeons straight after MS choose to work for a year or two as Senior Resident, a job which involves a surgeon to act as a bridge between the trainee residents and the faculty.
All The Best.
