A new curriculum has been incorporated that places less emphasis on the traditional lecture format and focuses on organ and disease based learning. More emphasis is being placed on clinical problem solving and clinical experience earlier in the curriculum. In addition, the grading system has been changed from a strict percentile/class ranking to an honors/pass/fail system. The change in grading policy was meant to further decrease competition between students, although frankly, the environment was not hostile or overly competitive under the previous system. Creighton University School Of Medicine predominantly emphasizes clinical training and provides solid clinical preparation for an internship/r...
