To each their own. I read hundreds of pages for the Mcat sciences but not the same way I would read a textbook. I would skim for important things instead of legitimately try to absorb every word from a textbook, which is what the lecom-b students told my group.
Each time a post is made on this thread it just reassures me that that pbl is just not for me. I just don't want people to be misled because I see a difference between the advocaters on SDN and people from LECOM-B I contact personally. Everyone is different with their learning styles and I personally just don't do well with reading mass pages while wondering in the back of my mind if I'm wasting my time reading a section about specific enzymes in a Random bacteria. The same could be said for a PBL lover who hates wasting time sitting in a lecture hall.
Couldn't agree more, and I am on the other end of the spectrum. Everything I've read here has made me more excited about PBL as I just put down my deposit last week. There's no right or wrong answer when it comes to a curriculum, it's all about picking what's right for you and fits your learning style.
