following up from an even later perspective (SMD16). i, and many of my classmates, love the curriculum. it's definitely effective for what it's attempting to do. sure, there are kinks (we just had our first "town hall" meeting today with the dean to voice our feedback), but like mvenus said, they are sooooooooo receptive to feedback, something i don't think many other schools would take so seriously.
a good example is that we had a new pathology leader teach us a few lectures ago, and people in my class were in an uproar over how, to put it bluntly, awful it was. but the path leader taught us again by the end of the week, and she had received numerous comments, etc. we were very prepared for another bad lecture but i think all of us were blown away by how quickly she adjusted and changed her teaching style.
gist: it's new, they're still working out some stuff, but it's pretty great so far, and it'll only get better!
