Results: The mean and standard deviation of scores for clinical education status were 3.49±.78 and 3.14±.6 according to clerkship and internship students, respectively. The most important strength point in clinical education was for “students awareness of clinical evaluation at the beginning of practical period” with mean score of 4.64(clerkships) and 4.27(internships) and the most important weakness point was for “ the ward not cooperating with the students” with mean score of 1.4 and “inappropriate coordination of theoretical learning with clinical practice”(mean score of 2.1).
