The COVID-19 pandemic shocked the world. The pressure on students and higher education institutions is high. Universities have been closed, but solutions to continue teaching and learning activities were offered by the online platforms. Hence, the aim of this study was to investigate how university medical students perceive this current form of education. The results of the survey highlighted that most of the students were satisfied with the measures taken by the university during the COVID-19 outbreak and the way the teaching-learning-assessment process took place. However, some negative aspects were reported, such as: lack of an adequate infrastructure for some students, less effective teacher-student communication and interaction, impossibility of performing practical applications, lack of socialization, less objective examination, possibility of physical and mental health problems. The main conclusion is that the students prefer to continue with hybrid model of learning, where the theoretical classes could be online, but practical classes would be face-to-face. Universities, now more than ever, should invest in teacher professional development of their faculty -- for teachers to be updated on effective pedagogical methods with or without the use of online technologies.
