- Abstract
This article explores the benefits of early clinical exposure (ECE) in medical education. The study found that ECE improved students' understanding of basic science, provided a connection between pre-clinical and clinical learning, and highlighted the importance of basic sciences in patient care. ECE also enhanced students' communication skills and their understanding of the sociocultural aspects of diseases. The study suggests that incorporating ECE into medical education can improve students' clinical and communication skills, ultimately leading to better patient outcomes. The article acknowledges the need for additional research to examine potential gender differences in the perception of ECE.
