what's everyone's thoughts on PBL? I kind of like it
I am nearing the end of my first year at a mostly PBL school and I am very pleased with what I've learned so far. I do think it was a good idea to have certain classes - anatomy, histo and embryo - in an accelerated lecture format first to lay out a basic foundation for understanding PBL cases, so I guess I agree with the above poster that some kind of combo approach is probably best.what's everyone's thoughts on PBL?

isnt most schools moving toward an integrated approach?
Can someone list the schools that employs the pbl type cirreculum?
LECOM-Bradenton is the only DO school where everyone is in a PBL curriculum.
Schools which have a PBL track for some students include LECOM-Erie and WVSOM. I think KCUMB and OU have some PBL integrated, and UMDNJ has a PBL track every other year or some such deal. These are the schools I have heard about, there may be more, since a lot of schools say they "integrate PBL" into their curriculum. If you're interested in a particular school, I'd start here.
How many folks are in NYCOM's PBL track? Do you go through any of the curriculum via lecture or is it all PBL? How do you do tests in PBL? Just wondering how it compares to LECOM's setup...Nycom is in its 2nd year of PBL so far. I like it.
problem based learningI kind of get what the gist of what this approach is all about, but for what exactly does PBL stand?

PBL = Problem Based Learning
Is that what you were asking?
