It's often something that is glossed over. Psychology or psychiatry should definitely make up more of the curriculum!

We're four weeks into class and already have had several lectures on alternative healing and the HIV/AIDS epidemic both here and abroad. We've spent considerable time on the ethics and humanism of the AIDS crisis. <br/><br/>While I wouldn't call it the "business" of medicine, my school is making a remarkable step forward this year in trying to introduce students early to a wide, wide range of specialties including giving lots of time to FP and Peds.<br/><br/>I'm pretty pleased so far with my curriculum. Maybe I'll be more upset with my curriculum when I actually get into rotations :) I am fairly pleased so far with my school.
