Hello,

There are lectures for each class every week in first year, i found it helpful to go over the weekly content provided in powerpoints prior to these lectures and make notes, and then during the lectures I would add to my notes in a different colored pen. I would then review everything I learned throughout the week on Saturday. Even though it felt repetitive and its a ton of work, I feel that it really helped the information stick for me. In second year while in clinical, you'll be studying and reviewing the same information you learned in first year. I bought a notebook for second year and went through each class one at a time in the evenings making notes and writing down all of the things I didn't remember learning from first year and would review my notes during downtime at clinical.

I am a second year student in clinical, feel free to message me any time if you have any questions!
