2. Gain veterinary knowledge through hearing different presentations – to get smarter by the easiest way.
3.We would like the course to be with less assignments and deadlines – we thought that if we have contact lessons every week then we would have less assignments to do at home – unfortunately it isn’t so. The purpose would be to have more time for each assignment.
4.Learn to summarize and pick out the most important information from articles – a good and very neccessary skill in out further life and career.
