Every country has a different education system, so it's not possible to answer your question definitively.

Here in the US, you first have to earn a bachelor's degree in physics, which takes 4 years (and often 5 years - or more).

Then you apply to graduate programs. The time it takes to complete graduate school varies widely, but generally it's about 2 years if you stop at a master's, or 5 to 8 years (please someone correct me if that's wrong) to get a Phd.

3 year degree with an Honours thesis is good enough to get into UK universities.

Only Imperial and Cambridge want a 4 year degree (I think)

All the other UK universities only need 3 year
