Answer 1

Wow.

You go to college for four years to get your undergrad....after that you take the Mcats to try and get into med school where you'll spend another 4-5 years.
Premed programs are designed to prepare you for med school. Undergrad degrees typically take 4 years.
When you're done, you intern somewhere.

Answer 2

MCATS are like the SAT you take to get into med school. It's an entrance exam. You apply for med school after 4 years in college--generally in a premed major. You spend 4 years in med school, but then you spend another several years doing specialty training (ex: surgical, pediatrics) and then internships and residencies...
