I'm sure someone can clarify better, but... I highly, highly doubt that you're going to have 2 TBLs a week. We had one two weeks ago, and that's the only one we've had in this system so far. We had 3 total (I think) in MSI. Maybe eventually they'll do 2 TBLs a week, but I highly doubt it'll happen with you.
We do other interactive sessions. We do problem sets. Today, for instance, we had a powerpoint where we had to identify 52 things from anatomy in about 50 minutes. We have similar problem sets for radiology, and we're working on getting others in different disciplines. We did a few small group sessions in MCM, where we'd actually have to put together a presentation and give it in front of 8-12 people. We have case presentations, where we work through cases.
There are still some lectures left. But in general, most all of the curriculum is independent learning, with the morning hours meant to reinforce the information. You're going to be learning independently wherever you go (because, let's face it, some professors suck, and half the time they won't cover all the material you need to know in a short lecture anyway), so I think our curriculum does a better job at applying the information, rather than just memorizing it. That said, they're getting really good at pointing you directly to the resources you need in order to learn the information.
