Abstract

The Indian medical education system which is believed to be one of the largest in the world consists of 479 medical colleges which produces 60,845 doctors per year. Student’s evaluation of any teaching curriculum is a firmly recommended part of the teaching-learning process and is aimed at achieving the desired objectives of producing competent doctors. This cross-sectional study was conducted using a pre-designed questionnaire on 100 medical students studying at undergraduate level in NEIGRIHMS. Primary objective: To study the views of the students regarding the existing medical curriculum. Secondary objective: Whether the present mode of teaching covers all the aspects of teaching or not. Our study found that 74% of third-year and 74% of final year MBBS students were satisfied with the current MBBS curriculum. Significant number of students also felt that ward rounds should commence from first year MBBS with students interested to participate in other activities during the MBBS curriculum. These inputs can be considered for making amendments in the MBBS curriculum to create a student-centric environment.
