So of course everyone hears about how hard med school and dent school are but I was recently researching the didactic curriculums at Iowa (school I'm closest to) and was surprised at how many more classes the dent students had to take. I couldn't find any details about length of classes, other than "semester hours," so is there a certain reason? You would guess that med students would have more simply because they have a broader topic to study (but of course they also have mandatory residencies). Just wondering. For myself, I feel more classes would make dental school even more impossible!
