Background: The transition into medical school marks a significant juncture in the academic journey of aspiring healthcare professionals. The first year of MBBS education lays the groundwork for foundational knowledge in the biomedical sciences, with theory paper writing serving as a pivotal component of the assessment process. Students often lack clarity on how to articulate their thoughts and meet teachers' expectations, revealing a noticeable gap in their preparation. Objectives: This scholarly article explores the importance of enhancing quality in theory paper writing for first MBBS exam aspirants. It delves into various facets of quality paper writing, including planning strategies, examination techniques, and skill development. Materials and Methods: The study conducted in the Department of Physiology for first MBBS students of batch 2020 involved an online presentation aimed at elucidating examination preparation and paper writing strategies. Feedback from students highlighted the efficacy of the session in aiding study planning, understanding exam patterns, and building confidence in completing syllabi within preparatory periods. Results: Students' suggestions underscored the need for additional sessions on essential topics and unit-wise tests. The study showed that interventions such as online presentations can significantly impact students' understanding and confidence in paper writing and exam preparation. Conclusion: We hereby conclude by emphasizing the critical role of educators in nurturing writing skills among medical students, ultimately preparing them for success in academia and future medical practice. This study highlights the importance of explicit instruction and support in theory paper writing to bridge the gap between students' current skills and the expectations of their medical education.
