Commuting

[tutgang566]

Would you say having a personal vehicle is necessary for pre-clerkship? I'm trying to figure out how I will commute to campus, but I'm not sure if pre-clerkship involves going out sometimes for learning purposes?

I found during first year of pre-clerkship I was fine taking the bus (and my commute was about 30-45 minutes). Occasionally we were required to be off-site but even then I would either bus or carpool with classmates. I can't speak for second year, but I feel it would be similar, although there is more off-site teaching.

There is more off site stuff but it's usually in groups and there is almost always someone in the group with a car.  You don't need your own car for second year.
