There was an article in the student BMJ in July about Prague…

The course lasts 6 years, and is made up with 3 year’s pre-clinical sciences and three year’s clinical subjects.
Attendance to lectures is compulsory, and if you miss too many- it can lead you towards being barred from your final exams.
Self directed learning is encouraged, and complements the traditional teaching.
The exams consist of a written, practical and oral component.
During the course, it is necessary to gain additional credits which are needed for you to progress onto the next year. These can be gained through medicinal activities such as addition classes and teaching, or through non-medical activities- such as extracurricular activities.
2 hours PE is compulsory in the pre-clinical years. There are also three hours of compulsory language lessons in the pre-clinical years. Also, there are many early starts, with some lectures beginning at 7.30 am!

Hope that helps!
