First semester starts at 8 AM. Saba has a strict attendance policy, attendance is taken for every class and you're allowed 10% absence (7 or 8 days).

This semester the 1st semesters have histo from 8-10, a 15 minute break, Anatomy lecture from 10:15-12:15, lunch 'til 12:45 then either more anatomy lecture (for an hour or so) and then into the anatomy lab until around 3. Most people either spend more time in the lab, or return to the lab later in the day. Smart people spend time in the lab on the weekends as well.

Wednesdays after 3 you will have informatics. This is a pass/fail class that lasts about an hour.

If you want to take it, Hyperbarics I is on Tuesdays at 3 PM for an hour or so.

Tests for the entire school are scheduled - every 3 weeks, 1st semester on Tuesdays. The two tests are over by noon or so and you have the rest of the day free.

The actual order of classes may be a bit different - last semester the lunch breaks were staggered for each class, and histo was at 10.

OBTW, this is not the right forum - basic sciences are not 'clinical'.
