Abstract:
A special elective course to prepare for the United States Medical Licensing Examination for 2 hours weekly was introduced for our 3rd-and 4th-year students 3 years ago. The course consists of two parts: one part concerned basic medical knowledge taught by medical faculty with American textbooks and the other part concerned medical English taught by a native English speaker speaking at a natural speed so that students will be able to understand naturally spoken English.
