title: Attitudes of medical students towards Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) in pediatrics.
abstract: A standardized Likert type scale containing 10 items was administered to 40 Fourth year medical students to assess their attitudes towards Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE). The overall attitudes were favorable. However, on certain aspects, a near neutral attitude was observed. Remedial changes in the teaching methodology have been undertaken to mould the attitudes favorably as well as to make pediatric teaching more effective.
