What medical career requires the least amount of college years?
Question asked:
So I’ve been thinking about studying for a medical career, and I was wondering - what career requires the least amount of school? I know some medical careers require like- seven years of school, is there a career that can require four or less than four years of college?

I’m sure something like Dentistry can be completed quicker (in some countries) but it really comes down to aptitude and future career prospects.
Paramedical sciences or pharmacy are other areas to consider. Silver.25

Hello, Your question is a bit general and there are lots of potential choices, I’m not sure what interests you. There are many 2 year programs available possibly EMT training, Respiratory technician or X-ray/sonogram technician. The best bang for your buck in the long-term would be to shoot for a BSN (4 year nursing degree). There are always well-paying nursing jobs available regardless of where you live. Good luck! cardo1111

EMTs and technicians mostly require community college.
Physician assistants are about 4 years, and the job is still pretty nice. goosegirl
