Kklalal,

I’m only familiar with less than a dozen 7 year med programs. It is hard for me to imagine any of them not being difficult. If your goal is to be a physician, why do you feel you are not achieving your goal? The British system of higher education is similar to your program, with less need for humanity/social science courses. I am an older parent, but I have never heard of any program that is laid-back.

If you do have free time, congrats to you. That probably means you are very intelligent and know how to study efficiently. Have you taken advantage of clubs or social activities at your college?

I hope you get more responses from people who are more current than I.
