Here are some information about medicine in general, and its courses in Jordan University in specific.

Here you can find information about the subject, and the books, and some additional information.

It is important to say that this schedule was changed after the year 2002, so coming students should not depend on it completely.

And for those who don't know anything about medicine I say:

“think twice”
