Abstract:
An entire final-class of medical students was set a 6-part question on dietary advice to patients as commonly seen in general practice. The marks were scored by a formal, agreed system. Eighty-two per cent failed though only 2% failed the whole exam. The teaching of practical nutrition needs to be improved.
