AETCOM module should be part of MBBS curriculum, suggests Parliamentary panel

Highlighting the role of the Attitudes, Ethics, and Communication (AETCOM) module in cultivating the right attitude, ethics and communication skills among medical students, a Parliamentary Health Committee has suggested that the module should be made part of the MBBS curriculum. Further, the panel has suggested incorporating these criteria in the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET) as well to assess the aptitude of aspiring medical students.

The panel opined that such aptitude tests at the entrance level not only assess the knowledge of the aspirants but also evaluate the genuine interest and passion of the candidate for the field of medicine.
