Becoming a Doctor: I wanted to be a doctor since i was 5 years old. It was my passion and if it is yours then you should see it through. 4 yrs. College, 4 years medical school and then probably 4 yrs plus for a residency. Another less involved route is to become a physician assistant or pa. It requires 5-6 years of college and you end up with a master's degree.
