As a new student, the transition from high school students to a medical student is not an easy thing. One of the highlights is the learning mechanism in faculty that is far different from high school. This causes some students who are not accustomed to this system so that it requires time to adapt to deal with this change. In addition, many new learning media and is only used in the medical faculty so that many new students have never known it and do not know how to access it.
Therefore, this year SCOME CIMSA FK UIN SH 2022-2023 will conduct an Initial Assessment to find out how new students know about academic life and learning media in medicine. The results of this assessment will be used as the basis for SCOME CIMSA FK UIN SH to hold EDUKA.
