case based learning vs integrated

i have an offer from cbl uni and a lecture-based uni. if u do medicine, which do you prefer? i have heard some bad things about cbl and that it isn't very effective, what do you think?

I imagine the answer will be unique to you and the way you learn.

However to offer some perspective, I went to a lecture-based uni thinking I would prefer it because I was the sort of person who liked to sit at the back of class and just listen, but ended up hating lectures.

The first two years consisted of one-hour lectures 9am-5pm Monday - Friday which involved 300 students sitting in one big room with a lecturer at the front reading off powerpoint slides. Because the group is so large if you don't understand something it's difficult to ask questions. It also gets boring very quickly. I don't think many people can sustain their attention for one hour, especially if it's not interactive. I ended up skipping lectures, just reading the slides myself (because the lecturers rarely added much) and if I didn't understand a concept I would go to the library, find some books and learn it myself.

Basically, I think many students make the same mistake I did and assume that because they enjoyed listening in classes at school they would therefore prefer lectures to small group learning. Just some food for thought.
