The Question should start thus; How do you even know you are a senior developer?
I am not sure their is definitive answer, but when you can compare your code of three years ago to your code of today and there are differences, you might call yourself a senior dev; if your thought about project design and delivery has improved significantly you might consider yourself a senior Dev. If you stop copying codes you don't understand, but rather start contributing codes for others to copy you might consider yourself a senior Dev. and finally if language documentation start making sense to you than codes on stackoverflow you might consider yourself a senior developer.
You will know when your arrogance and confidence might have increased.
But you will know sha

Your experience in terms of type of projects, how many projects, who you meet will determine how long. Imagine someone exposed to complex enterprise application that serves millions of users per day to another developer whose experience is limited to CRUD applications alone, how long will it take both to become a senior developer

I went through your posts on NL.

Is mbbs what you really want or it's your mum's decision?
