Medical Terminology (Latin)

 Well this is an unusual course, the name implies that the student will be learning Latin in a medical context, however, it really should be called "How to really waste a students time learning a dead language that is quickly being phased out of medicine and all the important words will be learned in other courses" The book for this is "essential" do to the fact that exercises will be done from it each week.

How to pass  Don't miss form than 3 seminars, they will be registered

 Pay no attention to the lessons, do something more productive like learning anatomy or revising chemistry

 Get the word list for the exam and like a mindless robot memorise the Latin word, declination and gender

 If you want to just pass, learn half the words perfectly, statistically you will get the 50% needed to pass, but this is risky 

 Forget the words the moment you pass the exam

The exams  Just 2 midterms:

 F rom a list of 300 words each midterm you are given the English word and you have to write the Latin, spelt correctly with its declination and gender

 There are 5 bonus questions for grammar 

 If you repeatedly fail there is a final oral exam

The difficulties
 Turning up for the minimum required amount of seminars

 Learning the 300 words in the week or so you get the word list before the exam when you have better things to do <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:4.8pt;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:6.0pt; margin-left:0cm;line-height:16.5pt;vertical-align:baseline">
