I forgot to say that you're still getting some clinical experience from semester 1. Current students are enjoying these benefits:

In the first semester:

viewing x-rays in anatomy dissection
viewing different pathologies in anatomy lab
visiting the pathology museum at King's College
doing case studies and taking clinically based exams
*(tissue preparation, staining, electrophoresis)

In the second semester:

more case studies and taking clincally based exams
some presentations (depends on the teacher)

In the third semester:

you'll learn interviewing techniques and the basics of drugs
case studies and presentations
*(micro lab - stains, cultures, etc..)

In the fourth semester

start seeing patients at clinics
physical exam & history taking
learn the drugs and how to treat patients
case studies and presentations
taking clincally based exams
oral exams

In the fifth semester

you'll start seeing patients at the hospital
case studies and presentations
taking clincally based exams

Only the ones with the * have been affected but it should be resolved soon. The school has the right to change their curriculum even if its inconvenient for the students. They're just making it better for you and others in the long run.
