All medical schools have different curriculum designs, but many schools opt to give quizzes/exams every other week during block 1 to keep students accountable! However, this definitely is not unique to medical schools. I took classes in undergrad that gave small quizzes every other week or chose to give unit exams rather than one midterm. I personally like this method of testing because there is less material and less at stake for each quiz. But, with a quiz and an anatomy practical happening every 10-14 days, I ALWAYS feel like I'm in exam study mode. This makes it difficult to sustain focus and avoid falling behind. I want to share what I've been doing to survive and maybe even thrive with exams every other week.
