True PBL Curriculum

Hey Guys,

Is Cornell the only vet school that has a completely integrated PBL curriculum? I know that other schools have PBL classes that teach you how to approach a case, but as far as how most of the classes are taught, it's still the traditional "Anatomy", "Neurology", "Digestive System", etc approach.

Asking pretty much just out of curiosity since the true PBL curriculum was a major deciding factor in my accepting at Cornell, and I've already turned down all other interviews, so can't really change my mind now 😛....

Western University also has a 100% PBL curriculum. I hear Mississippi used to, but their NAVLE pass rates were falling so they did away with a lot of the PBL. I hear whisperings of PBL at LSU, but I don't think they're 100% PBL there.

Phew, glad to hear that – would have been really upset if I found out that another school I had applied to did PBL and I turned them down without doing more research. (Never applied to Western, and am waiting for LSU’s decision now...) Actually, reading the LSU thread and the discussion of a PBL curriculum was what got me thinking in the first place....
