Can't I vent a little at the pace?
Even my hardest classes in college were only a 1/3 to a 1/4 of the volume of this! (I am whining more b/c we have our first midterm on 350+ pages of syllabus material - including the anatomy of the thoracic cavity, vertebral column, upper and lower limbs - in a week.)
Anyway, yes, all med schools will have more volume than you can ever digest - it's not specific to UCSF (although the volume of anatomy is more than what I've heard other schools do in the first 3 weeks). Bottom line, it's a great school and the new curriculum integrates basic sciences and clinical well. Off to study more anatomy ...
