    Okay. I'm REALLY confused. I've been trying to figure out Mer and Der's ages.

    Derek- They said mark is 36 and I thought they'd be the same age.

    Meredith- Sadie is 30 soo...

    Lexie SHOULD be 25 so that means that Mer is 5 years older than the rest of the interns. 

    I was also wondering how long Derek has been an attending.

    Intern- 25

    2nd yr resident- 26

    3rd- 27

    4th- 28 

    5th- 29

    6th- 30

    7th- 31

    8th- 32

    Attending- 33

    2- 34

    3- 35

    4- 36

    Does that sound right???

    Hannah (Izzie's daughter) was 11 and was born when Izzie was 16. I believe in Grey's years it's only been a year since Hannah's transplant so Izzie would be 27-28ish.

    When Cristina had her surgery for ectopic pregnancy the OR Board said she was 28 and that was before Hannah appeared so Cristina is 29-30ish.

    Kate Burton (Ellis) is only 12 years older than Ellen.

    Lexie just told Mark she was 24 because she skipped a year of school. If Thatcher and Ellis divorced when Meredith was 5 then Meredith would AT LEAST be 29-30.

    Residency length depends on the specialty. Remember that Callie, Sydney and Miranda are all 5th year residents.

    Addison is 39-40 and since she, Mark and Derek (and Naomi and Sam from PP) went to Med School together they are all about the same age. (I believe Naomi is roughly a year younger than Addison because she was 38 when Addie was 39)

    I was trying to figure out how long Derek has been an attending. I don't think realistically the ages make sense.

    Nikki, Lexie is Thatcher's 2nd daughter. She's older than Molly by 2 years I think.

    Neurosurgery residency is approximately 7 years. As Callie said it's 4 years of high school, 4 years of college, four years of med school. So if Derek was 18 when he graduated high school, he would have been 26 when he finished Med School and then 33 when he finished his residency. That puts it at approximately 6-8 years as an attending.

    Well I read on wikipedia that Mark and Addison are about 39-40, so Derek also has to be about 39-40
