Students. Myanmar Medical Journal. 1994; 39(1): 10-13http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/126356This study was conducted on Second M.B.B.S students (11/92 batch) of IM (1), to fulfill three objectives viz. to get students feedback on the course; to give the students an opportunity to evaluate the staff and our Department's performance and to relate study habits to class performance. Results to the first two objectives have already been reported else where (MEU Newsletter, IM (1), August, 1993), so this paper focuses on the last objective. Questionnaires were given to 220 students, of whom 98 responded. Students' achievement was assessed taking into consideration the number of distinctions gained in the Matric and First M.B.B.S class; number of times they made it to the Departmental Top-Ten list; and the number of tests passed in the three disciplines. Aspects of study habits interrogated include reading of text books; making notes; revising at weekends; number of hours of study; answering old questions. We found that there is much room for improvement in the study habits of our students.Study CharacteristicsHabitsEducation, PremedicalStudents, Medical
