Hours/week for medicine students (1 Viewer)

[gapathetic]

Just wondering, how many hours do medicine students have to attend uni each week?

 

[Rekkusu]

Medical students typically spend about 29 hrs per week for required courses during pre-clincal years. As you progress through your degree, you'll also need to set aside periods as residents in Hospitals, as well as 2-5 hours in elective courses.

Academic periods are also longer than other faculties, except for ADFA etc.
