How long does take to be a dotor or ER nurse in Canada or the US

How long does take to be a dotor or ER nurse in Canada or the US ?
Some one was saying 10 years for dotor and 4 years for ER nurse and 2 years for non ER nurse or parmedic. So a parmedic or non ER nurse is 2 years . A ER nurse 4 years and a doctor 10 years and specialist other 5 years on top. Also is it harder to get into med school in Canada than the US ? in Canada for a doctor after your 4 year undergrad you have 4 years of Med school =========================== Can you get into 4 year undergrad if you no nothing about the human body and I mean nothing?

in Canada for a doctor after your 4 year undergrad you have 4 years of Med school then 2 years of residency. For a nurse, no specific "ER" nurse standing, its 4 years to be a RN, but you can be practical nurse with a 2 year college diploma.

Canada takes 4 years for an RN and 2 years for a Practical Nurse. BSN is for any kind of RN not just those that work in the ER.Med school is 4 years for a premed degree, 4 years for med school and 4-8 years for residency depending on your specialty. I have heard that Canadian med school are tougher to get into because they have higher standards but I don't know how true that is.

The RN program is a 4 year degree program.

You can't get into med school on a fine arts degree - you have to start with a degree in science (not computer science). It isn't harder to get into med school in Canada than in the US, but there are fewer Canadian med schools. Of course, the population is smaller as well, but I think the ratio is tighter in Canada. Once you have your med degree, there is usually another couple of years if you decide to specialize in something, so it can be a long haul until you are actually practising.
