For current non-trad med students, how is medical school going so far?

As for me, I'm an MS-1, about 1.5 months into it. Getting my ass kicked by anatomy, yet somehow surviving.

Pretty much the same. Wrote memorization is not my cup of tea, but there it is. I'll take my medicine and deal.
 
So far, so good. I definitely have less background in biology, but it hasn't been much of a hindrance so far. I hit the class average on the first exam, which is alright by me (P/F curriculum).

They are slowly piling on to our schedule though, so it's definitely not going to get easier. Survival is going to be a keyword going forward.

GL nontrads!
