How much training does it take to become a surgeon?

This depends on several different factors including your country of training, institution and what type of surgeon you wish to become In New Zealand, surgeons begin training as ordinary doctors. They work through their medical degree first then undergo residency training like all doctors. Once this has been completed, they can apply for a specialist residency training followed by a fellowship with the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons.

The NZ medical degree (called the MBChB) takes six years of full time study to complete. Residency takes about 1-2 years while Fellowship training can reach up to 7 years or more Supposing you wanted to train as a neurosurgeon, you can expect to train and study for a total of over 15 years. You must also continuously validate your practicing certificate and undergo annual evaluations with the Medical Council of New Zealand.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
