To be a doctor of Medicine and surgery, you need to do masters in the same field.

You have to first graduate as a doctor after the MBBS (5 years) and then you have to apply for the masters.

The masters course is of 3 years.

So, after 12th, if you do not drop any year, you have to study for 8 years at least.
