A course has been described which attempts to introduce clinical relevancy to the basic science knowledge. It has been demonstrated how senior students' feedback about curricular shortcomings can be redirected to their constructive participation in the educational process. The described Clinical Confrontation course develops problem-solving skills and self-learning habits in the learners while they are processing and rearranging prior knowledge. At the same time, both the scientific base of medicine and the internal logic of the disciplines are preserved.
