Abstract

Aim: To compare between 2 different methods of Examination – OSCE (Objective Structured Clinical Examination) and Practical Viva during clinical post end examination for 7^th semester students.

Materials and Methods: 200 students from 7^th semester posted in ENT were subjected to OSCE and Practical Viva on 2 adjacent days. 40 students were posted at a time in ENT clinical posting. For OSCE, 10 stations were arranged. At the end of OSCE and Viva, feedback form was given to all 40 students. The observation and results were then formulated.

Observation and Results: From the above observation, OSCE was found to be better than Viva exam.

Conclusion: OSCE can be a part of clinical evaluation for the students as it has a fixed time at every station, impartial, student friendly and good scoring exam.
