Medical education in India that includes MBBS and specialty post-graduation programmes are intense, thorough and well acclaimed. The new medical education curriculum introduced by the National Medical Commission in 2019 is all set to be uniformly implemented. It is a welcome move in the direction of competencies-based assessment, as well as enhancing soft skills and integrated learning. It is also important for medical students to learn other aspects and skills that are highly important in shaping their career, practice, and life after their education is completed. These include business, finance and administrative skills and knowledge, medicolegal aspects, interacting with and tackling different kinds of patients, understanding the scope and benefits of general practice, family medicine and holistic healthcare, making informed career choices, and selfcare that involves coping skills, building resilience, managing stress, and maintaining one’s own physical and mental health.
