8 years. Plus 4 years of under paid residency. (4 years of undergraduate to get your bachelors, then another 4 years actually in medical school, then another 4 years as a residency where you get alot of crap and only a little money) Pre med is usually a semester or a year of courses that get you ready for medical school but do NOT count toward your graduation requirement. As for good schools, I would check out the web rankings for the specific field you want to go into.

pre med can be a major, but i wouldnt recommend it. you have to take specific classes that are required but beyond that, you can major in anything. the classes usually are 1 year of chemistry and one year of organic chemistry each with a lab, 1 year of biology with lab, one year of physics, some math and some writing classes. if you are set on med school, you can apply to a 7 year bs/md where you get to skip one year of school.
