Abstract
Since medical education gives long-standing emphasis on assessments, it seems crucial to evaluate whether our current focus on testing makes sense. This report seeks to provide an account of learning gains attained through assessments and examinations, so we evaluate the views of medical students in a medical college that optimally utilizes educational assessments. For this purpose cross-sectional study was performed in which sample was randomly selected from 2nd, 3rd and 4th year. The results obtained showed that most of the students found these assessments helpful in their learning process and they performed well in their professional examinations. So we conclude that assessments and examinations have a positive effect on student’s learning and they should take optimally.
