First of all, this stage calculator will tell you which stage of puberty you are in, and give you more info on it:

Secondly, everyone moves through the stages at different paces. Some will go through them faster than others, some will take all of puberty to hit stage 5, so no matter what outcome you get, you're alright. There's no rush.

Yeah. Puberty last for years and I'm not sure about how long each stage is. But you'll stop growing at around 20...at least by the average age.

Okay. Remember that these 'stages' aren't real, or at least there not physically real. Let me explain:
Stages are a guide to give you an idea of where you are in puberty. For the most part, it's not that necessary as everyone goes through it and finishes it eventually. That's like having stages to tell people how close to dying they are. (Sort off)
There isn't an asigned 'gap' of years of how long each lasts etc. As most people don't follow the normal pattern as portrayed on that guide. Don't get me wrong, it's a great guide and a good site etc, but people are people, we are strange creatures as we are all so similar yet all so different.
Some people will be way ahead in puberty in one area, yet in others they lack behind a bit of the normal progress.
Did I explain that well enough?
