 abstract={Background: Problem-based learning is a method of acquiring knowledge and competences on the basis of work on the problem. Medical universities use the PBL method more widely in the course of teaching future physicians, in the CMUJ classes using the PBL method were introduced in the third year of studies, as a part of the Introduction to Clinical Sciences. Methods: At the end of course, the students voluntarily filled in a questionnaire (17 questions con-cerning various aspects of the course). A total of 105 questionnaires were analyzed. Statistica 12.0 program was used for this analysis. Results: 95.5% of respondents positively perceived the way of conducting classes in the form of PBL and considered them to be in line with their expectations (81%). 80% of respondents confirmed the usefulness of classes in acquiring knowledge and integrity with pre-clinical subjects. Divided opinions were expressed by the respondents as to the benefits and satisfaction from independent presentation and teaching of other students, 34.3% rather emphasized the benefits, while 28.6% expressed a negative opinion. Conclusions: The study confirmed usefulness of classes conducted using the PBL method, both in terms of deepening the knowledge and repetition of already gained knowledge, as well as beneficial reception of classes by students. The course may be modified in the future by increasing the number of cases.},
