So my question is the following:
I'm currently an M1 and my study schedule is insane. My med school does this prestudy type curriculum where we are in class from 8-afternoon (anywhere from 2-5) and then they send us home with a ton of "prestudy" for tomorrow. The thing is they usually skip most of that the next day and teach new stuff. It seems to me like a roundabout way to give us way more work than if class was all didactic lecture. They said before the switched from didactic lecture we would have class until 3 or 4. My issue is, if you are going to keep me there all day, you can't expect me to finish 6 hours worth of prestudy every night after class from 8-2 (on a good day). I'm in my 8th week of M1 and I have all A's so I am handling it. But I feel like everyone else in my class has given up doing their prestudy or coming to class, and I am one of the handful still trying to accomplish everything and as a result I have no life. Has anyone else experienced this and can you offer some guidance.
p.s. I did search for topics before I posted a new one, none of them matched my personal story.
