Academic Study

The early years of medical students' experience can clearly be important in shaping their attitudes for the future. Typically pre-clinical students are bombarded with basic science subjects and many express the view that it is difficult to see the relevance of much of their academic study to their ambition of working with people. The Behavioural Science Course which is generally held during the students' second year is one of the few courses which is devoted to the functioning of the whole person in society. Typically, this course includes psychology and medical sociology.

Objective: The simple curriculum of Medical science has the complex biochemical theories which are hard to grasp. To address this problem, practical knowledge and change in approach to study is relevant to have a better foundation in clinical years; where this information has to be applied. Methodology: Modifications were made in experimental biochemistry and genetics to focus on more applied knowledge through experiments and problem-based learning. A seven-item questionnaire to check the students’ perspective of biochemistry was distributed among second year students, 89 out of 104 responded. Results: 42 were males and 47 were females. The results were positive between 60% and 70% for all the items. 70% was highest, which was for component, which they still hope for better courses in the future. Conclusion: Numerous strategies have been applied to promote teaching results and increase the effectiveness of teaching to undergraduate clinical students in biochemistry.

Background: Pathology is a key subject at the pre-clinical stage of medical training. Objectives: To determine the perception of second-year MBBS (preclinical) students regarding Pathology as a subject and the effectiveness of various teaching, learning and assessment methods. Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out on 145 randomly selected, second-year MBBS students, appearing for their Phase II final university exams. A predesigned questionnaire with questions about students’ perception of pathology was administered to the students. The questionnaire also assessed the various teaching-learning methods currently used by the faculty. The students were also requested to make suggestions regarding the modifications needed in the teaching methods. Results: A total of 145 out of 150 regular-batch students participated in the study. One hundred (68.9%) regarded pathology as an interesting subject; 131 (90.3%) felt pathology acts as a bridge between paraclinical and clinical branches while 107 (73.8%) found blackboard teaching more effective. Conclusion: The study revealed that the preclinical medical students showed a favourable predisposition towards pathology as a subject while highlighting areas that need to be addressed for more effective teaching and improved learning towards producing better medical professionals.
