  Course
  
  The course is structured in a very logical way, in that we cover a certain body system for a few weeks then move onto another. And we come back to topics at later dates to cover in greater detail as is appropriate to our present stage of training. Most of the clinical teaching comes from small groups which is good, however most of the science comes from lectures which can vary in quality sometimes, especially if the lecturer happens to not be a regular teacher at the uni. The quality of teaching in small groups is excellent, and often has upper-year students giving us tips and feedback. Assessments are fair in their questioning, and in their lengths, however results have been delayed on more than a few occasions which is disappointing, but very detailed breakdowns are given with regards to student performance in exams so it allows you to tailor your future revision.
