Guidelines are presented for lecturers as well as results of questioning surveys of the students. The students answers showed that individual clinical tasks appeared most difficult for them. The mean score fr home tasks was 3.1, good marks being given in 21% only. Poor knowledge was reported in resolving diagnostic questions, treatment of renal failure, treatment of the kidneys in systemic disorders of the connective tissue.
