Does Pavia have a more Western style education compared to other universities?

[Erina M]

Pavia students, what are your thoughts?

From what I have read, Pavia follows closely a Western based system, more so than other Italian med schools.

-Less oral exams, more written exams

-Less emphasis on lecture attendance

-Higher # of American/British professors as opposed to IMS Milan for example, which composes of mostly Italian professors
