Just wondering if other people at different institutions are in the same boat as me. My school requires a ridiculous number of required small group sessions per week for lecture based material. We also have to watch 1-3 hour long pre-work videos prior to these small group sessions and are subsequently assigned worksheet questions that we have to discuss for nearly 2.5 hours, 3-4 times a week. This is on top of two 3 hour anatomy lab sessions per week.
What's even worse is that these small group sessions are often at 8 AM in the morning.
Overall, these small groups sessions are a major time suck and I'm a bit annoyed as I want to use boards resources while studying, but the obscene amount of pre-work and small group sessions have been driving me nuts. If I understand the material, I don't see why I have to discuss it for 3 hours straight. And if I don't, I'd rather just google the question or talk to a professor.
