|---|---|---|
| Spread course content of Pathology over 4 years for better integration | 25 (78) | 97 (92) |

| Lab Medicine is an integral part of Clinical Clerkship and rotation of students in the diagnostic laboratory should be ensured. | 29(90) | 95 (90) |
| Curriculum change should always be made after taking the faculty members and students into confidence as the major stakeholders. | 31 (97) | 99 (94) |
| Curriculum change should be made prospectively rather than retrospectively so that it does not disturb the sessions already in progress. | 23 (72) | 79 (75) |
