Can those in 3 year programs give us insight on the work load?

How many hours of school do you do a day?
How many hours of study do you commit?
Do you even go out?
Ever asked yourself why the hell you did 3 year instead of a 4 year program?

POST IT UP! 😎
 
the only difference i would say between 3 vs 4 yr school is for 3 yr school, you have summers. Curriculumwise nothing else is accelerated. It is accelerated because you have an extra semester during the summer. Also rotations are condensed, meaning you wont have any breaks between rotations.

I am currently in my 2nd semester at UOP. I dont study everyday, not even on some weeks. I do study much more 2 weeks before midterms/finals. But it really depends on the person and their background.
