This study aims to evaluate the satisfaction of students with a block system and it's effect on preparing students for a culinary career in the future. Summing up the outcomes of this study, male students reported higher levels of satisfaction than female students not only regarding a block system $perse$ (significant level 0.05) but with regards to career preparation as well (level 0.01). According to the choice variations disclosed by this study, a strong correlation exists with each of the p-values 0.000. Additionally, satisfaction with a block system appears to be strongly related to how well it is perceived to prepare students for future jobs with a RSQ = 0.840. Summing up the study's conclusions on gender effects, satisfaction with a block system is higher for males than females due to its being physically harder to take for female than for male students. Also, student grades have no correlation with satisfaction with a block system while they show significant differences in future job will. Freshmen (first year students) displayed the strongest level of satisfaction regarding future career preparation while seniors (fourth year students) the lowest. According to these results, we can posit a theory; gender and study years have an effect on the satisfaction with a block educational program and perceived value of career preparation. Therefore, culinary instructors and planners should consider this study's results to improve student satisfaction and future job preparedness.
