Complete a Residency. After graduating from medical school, doctorate candidates need to complete a paid residency, typically at a hospital. Depending on specialization, residencies can last anywhere from three to eight years. Some specializations require an additional fellowship, which can last up to three years.
Cooking Time. One cup of regular long, medium, or short grain rice typically takes 15 minutes to cook in a rice cooker, parboiled rice tends to take 20 minutes for 1 cup, and 1 cup of whole grain rice can take between 40 and 45 minutes.
It should be al dente. So as you can see, cooking brown rice can be as easy and quick as giving it a rinse and cooking for 30 minutes, or it can take as long as a day and a half to soak and prepare the rice for that final 30 minutes of actual cooking time. It is up to you how much effort you want to put into it.
