Ali,
Almost right, but not quite.
1) Get a Class 1 medical - if you can't get your medical, no point carrying on!
2) PPL - minimum 45 hours
3) ATPL theory - required before starting 5) and 6)
4) Hour-building to at least 150 hours, required before starting 5)
5) CPL - minimum 200 hours
6) IR
This will allow you to fly as f/o in an airline, although whether you'd actually be offered a job with so little experience is a completely different matter
7) ATPL - 1500 hours, including 500 hours on a multi-pilot aircraft (as f/o) - this allows you to act as captain in an airline.
3) and 4) can be done in the opposite order, and often are. 5) and 6) can be done in the opposite order, although they are usually done in the order I've suggested.
Good luck! And remember, any questions specifically relating to 2) or 4) belong in Private Flying, relating to 1) belong in Medical, and anything else belongs here in Wannabes.
