You go through a “12-step program” with a bunch of other addicts.

It depends and can vary in a lot of different ways, depending on your program. I have never personally been to rehab, but have many friends that have, some on several occasions. Outpatient therapy is seemingly more convenient (you get to live at home, etc), but most people I know who have gone this route initially find it hard to break their old habits.
For inpatient programs, the least amount of time I have heard someone staying is 1 month. For a therapy-only program, the usual stay is up to 6 months. School included programs may be longer do not know how old you are, or if this is relevant, but many inpatient programs for young adults have school components as well, so you can catch up (or get ahead) on credits. A friend of mine actually graduated early because he got so far ahead while at rehab.
Either way, most of what you do will be therapy. You will have a lot of time to yourself. Anybody who has been to drug rehab will tell you that it will only help you if you are committed to being helped. This means following all the rules and attending all sessions. For those who I have seen come through rehab successfully, they took their spare time as a time to better themselves (read lots of books, wrote, worked out, made a point to eat healthy, took up a new, non-drug related hobby). In either way, besides the mandatory therapy, what you do will ultimately be your choice, and the wrong choices may get you kicked out of rehab altogether.
