Kinda, probably, yes. The whole medicine thing takes 13 semesters, and I'm just about to finish the second one. Meaning I have another 5 years to go.
In a year (after 4 semesters), I will have to take the Physikum exam, which is a huge exam on everything from the first two years - which is all non-clinical stuff; anatomy, histology, chemistry, physics, biology, biochemistry, psychology, physiology etc.
When I have passed the Physikum (if I pass it :P), I will start on the clinical part of the 13 semesters - that's when I'll learn about all the pathologic -ologies; radiology, pharmacology, hematology etc.
The last two semesters are a practical period where I will practice as semi-doctor in a hospital (as a rule, that year's spent mainly drawing blood, since in Germany nurses aren't allowed to do that ;) ).
After that, there's an exam on the whole clinical part. They call it the killer-exam :P. And after that I'm a doctor. Then I can start specializing ^^.
