If I had studied harder, I would have passed the test. Is this Future perfect? or based on the condition is it past?

If I had studied medicine I would be a doctor.
The condition is I would be. So this sounds present perfect. True?

    I would have passed = Conditional Perfect
    I will have passed = Future Perfect

    I would be = Conditional

    note: to be a perfect tense there must be "have/has/had" etc. in some form.
    Present Perfect = I have passed
    Future Perfect = I will have passed
    Conditional Perfect = I would have passed
    Past Perfect = I had passed
