Question
hi I'm the airforce and would like to become an anesthesiologist. i was wondering where should i start?what college would you recommend? what courses should i take? and would it take up to 12 yrs?

Answer
Any 4 year college is fine and your major can be anything you want as long as you take all the prerequisite courses for medical school. It will take you 12 years from when you start college to finishing anesthesiology training.
