The student who wishes to educate himself for the medical profession, must devote eight semesters to medical study, and must previously have passed through the gymnas- ium. The first four semesters must be devoted exclusively to physics, chemistry zoology, botany, mineralogy, anatomy and physiology. At the end of these four semesters the stu- dent may pass his first examination (tentamen physioum). With the fifth semester com- mences his purely medical studies, which must be continued without interruption for two years, and then the student may pass the state examination (Das medicinsche Staatsexa- men d. h. die arzthcUe Approbationspriifung).
