The reaction rate among the first and second year understudies was 98.18% and 100% individually. Sexual orientation first Year (n=216) second Year (n=177) Absolute (n=393) Male 94 (43.5%) 103 (58.2%) 197 (50.1%) Female 117 (54.2%) 71 (40.1%) 188 (47.8%) Table 2: Baseline Characteristics first Year (n=216) second Year (n=177) Absolute (n=393) Tutoring: Abroad 30 (13.9%) 43 (24.3%) 73 (18.6%) In India 170 (78.7%) 121 (68.4%) 291 (74%) Both 16 (7.4%) 9 (5.1%) 25 (6.4%) Before MBBS: School 121 (56%) 95 (50.7%) 216 (55%) Degree 5 (2.3%) 4 (2.25%) 9 (2.3%) Dropped 68 (31.5%) 50 (28.2%) 118 (30%) Others 19 (8.8%) 25 (14.1%) 44 (11.2%) Larger part of the members have done their tutoring exclusively in India (74%). 55% of the respondents joined straightforwardly after school, though 30% dropped a year or 2 preceding joining school. 2.3% of the understudies had finished a degree preceding joining school. Both first year and second year understudies picked the clinical calling since they had an enthusiasm for the clinical field. It appears that not very many second year understudies were constrained by their folks (3.4%) when contrasted with the first year understudies (4.6%). Then again, there are not many understudies in the first year that picked medication for employer stability (1.9%) not at all like the second year understudies who had a higher level of 15.3%.

Among the second year understudies, 84.2% of the understudies chose for a clinical field, 7.9% having not chosen at this point 2.3% for a non-clinical field. This pattern of more understudies choosing a clinical field might be because of the introduction to clinical postings during the second yea r (Table 5).
