Undergraduate Medical Students' Experience with Foundation Course at a Public Medical College in India.

Abstract:

:The study aimed to explore the perception and knowledge-gain of undergraduate medical students during the Medical Council of India-mandated one month foundation course in August, 2019. A total of 129 consenting students who underwent the foundation course were enrolled and their feedback collected using an email-based structured questionnaire. A majority (>60%) had positive attitudes towards various aspects of the course, with good scores obtained in the post-test by the majority of the students. The information reported will assist in the planning of future foundation course programs.
