Abstract:
As for the goal of medical education, it is generally accepted that it should provide the medical students with the ability to practice primary care.

This survey was conducted on the senior medical students (N = 209) who has been through with the entire curriculum of Seoul National University to assess the degree of satisfaction with the medical education and the ability to practice primary care. We analyzed the useful answers of the 164 objectives. The mean age of the objectives was 24.2+/-1.0 years. The results were as follows : 1.
