Our university

OUR UNIVERSITY
I care for medicine that's why I entered Ryazan State Medical University. The history of our university goes back to 1950. It was formed on the base of the Third Moscow Medical Institute and was named after academician I.P.Pavlov. At present it is one of the top higher medical schools. It is also known in other countries - a lot of foreign students study here, too. There are medical as well as humanitarian faculties at our University. The medical are the faculties of therapy, pharmacy, dentistry and preventive medicine., The faculties of philology, ecology, law and management are humanitarian ones.
I study at the faculty of therapy. It trains general practitioners. The course of study lasts six years. In the first two years we study general and pre-clinical subjects. Beginning with the third year we shall study special subjects such as Therapy, Surgery and Obstetrics. There are two terms in the Academic year. At the end of each term we take examinations I should say that to be a medical student is a difficult job. Every day we have one or two lectures and practical classes. I try not to miss lectures and always take notes of them. My favorite subjects are Anatomy, Histology and Biochemistry. They are difficult but very important for my future work. We study foreign languages, too. I am sure that to be a highly skilled specialist one has to read foreign medical literature in order to be aware of the latest achievements in the field of therapy, surgery, gynecology and so on
Some of our students live at the hostel, others rent rooms or live with their parents. Those who. get good marks at the examinations get grants. For some students education is free of charge. Others have to pay for their studies.
I am sure that thanks to the high level of education and up-to-date educational facilities our students will become highly skilled specialists.
STUDENT'S LIFE
I am eager to become a doctor that's why I entered Ryazan State Medical University. I should say that it's a difficult job to be a medical student. We study a lot of subjects. Some of them are very difficult. So I have to get up very early, because I should do many things during my working day. At 7 o'clock my alarm-clock wakes me up. Sometimes I do my morning exercises but very often I have no time for it.
My studies begin at 9. I live at the hostel so it takes me a short time to get to the University. The classes last till 3 or 4. Then I have dinner at the University canteen and after a short rest go to the library to prepare reports and do my homework.
There is a spacious gymnasium at our University. So two or three times a week I go there to play volleyball or basketball for I care for sports.
In the evening when I have some spare time I like to watch TV or listen to music. Sometimes I go to a disco but not very often. At about 12 o'clock I feel that I'm very tired and go to bed.
