Abstract

Assessments play an important role in the process of learning and help in motivating learners. All assessments have different effects during the education process like decisions about grades, the effectiveness of curriculum, placement, instructional needs, advancement, and in some cases funding. Recently Pakistan Medical Commission started National Licensing Examination (NLE) 2021 under PMC ACT. The PMC is struggling to achieve centralization and standardization of medical education with this exam. There are opposing arguments about whether this exam would be able to achieve its objectives. Here, we present the student perspective in this short communication.
