How many credits was your first semester in dental school?

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
MWU-AZ is on a quarter system.

First year: 57 credits
Appx D1 breakdown:

Q1: 10 weeks + 1 week "finals" - 19 credits (followed by 3.5 weeks off around Thanksgiving)
Q2: 10 weeks + 1 week "finals" - 19 credits (2 weeks off during holidays, then 1 off week at end)
Q3: 10 weeks + 1 week "finals" - 18 credits (followed by 15 weeks off for boards and whatever you want ...H&N remedial at Louisville if you fail that module (rare))

D2 (65 credits) and D3 (69.5 credits) have a 4th quarter but get 1-2 weeks off before and after. D4 (62 credits) graduate end of Q3.

We dont take separate classes here at UConn. Its all just one large set of lectures and we are tested on them at the end of the block. Consequently, we do not have quarters/semester nor do we have class credits. If I had to guess though, I would say a lot haha
