Nija’s Answer

Hi Attamah,

I hope all is well. To answer your question, it takes about a total of twelve years of education in order to become a neurologist. According to wikiprofessional website, it typically takes about 12 years to become a neurologist. 4 years are spent as an undergraduate working toward a bachelor's degree, and then another 4 years are spent in medical school. After medical school, graduates will then undertake a one-year internship, followed by a 3-year residency program.


Nija recommends the following next steps:

Refer to website: https://www.wikiprofessional.org/wiki/neurologist/
Schedule an informational interview with Neurologists to obtain information on what it is like to be a neurologist.
Volunteer in a hospital
