From someone who's having a pretty hard time with M1, how is M2 like for you current second years? How did you transition to the workload as well? Thanks...

I concur. I think I studied a fair amount more, but I skipped so many lectures that I probably slept more too.I pretty much agree with everything Non-TradTulsa said. To summarize:
More Work
More Difficult
More Memorization
More Interesting
Counting down the days till M3....must get out of the classroooom.
Seconded times a zillion bajillion.i'm pretty sure that umbrella was open during anatomy lab because that hurt like hell. as long as i'm not in anatomy lab then i'm happy
I'm not so sure about the "less panic" part
4 exams in 24 hours is not fun
You'll have a higher alcohol tolerance 2nd year because you've been drinking yourself to sleep all 1st year.
You'll be better at being a medical student second year but it still sucks.
All in all, studying well and efficiently during M1 should set you up for M2 success
That is so true, and a lot of people overlook it, thinking that m1 is useless minutiae without future relevance. But really, having learned your **** first year makes second year so much easier (not actually easy, but at least it doesn't feel like you're drowning--you feel like you're able to tread water).
