Abstract

Assessment, evaluation goes by side of teaching. Multiple choice questions (MCQ's) assess the cognitive domain which was included in summative assessment earlier. Today The Tamilnadu Medical University designed the question paper which contains Essay, Detail notes, Short answers exempting MCQ's. This project was done to get a feed back from students for reintroducing MCQ's in present examination paern. As already students were exposed to long essays in their routine Formative assessments, we planned to give them the MCQ's. The MCQ's of single best answer type were given from the previous lecture classes. At the end of few such sessions, students were given feedback form to fill and forms were analysed further. As per the feedback from the students, it showed that they wish to have MCQ's as it not only increases their learning skills, concepts but also shows an improvement in the final summative assessments.
