Most of the students consider LCD as the best teaching methodology. 61.11% students believe that multimedia teaching relies on scientific contents is not boring and does not cause lack of attention.

Conclusion: Anatomy forms backbone of medical education for 1st MBBS students. This study assesses effectiveness of modern method versus old chalkboard method of teaching gross anatomy. Such studies give us an idea of our area of deficiencies and strengths of teaching methods which help in bringing corrective measures in future.
