Indian journal of pharmaceutical education and researchSummary: Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the current situation with the
undergraduate tutorial system in China from the students’ perspective and to further
improve that system for greater developmental benefits. Materials and Methods: We
designed a 21-item questionnaire to analyze the current situation with the undergraduate
tutorial system. It was administered to freshman, sophomore and junior students
taking a pharmacy undergraduate degree. In all, 415 pharmacy students completed
the questionnaire. We collected the data and categorized them into 12 groups before
subjecting the data to statistical analysis. We identified the common and different points
(such as the most popular response options) between female or male students and by
university year. Results: In all, 415 pharmacy students completed the questionnaire.
We observed many differences in the popular choices between female or male students
as well as among students in different university years. Even when the most popular
options were the same, there were differences in the proportions between female and
male students as well as among students in different years. Conclusion: There were
considerable differences with respect to university year, genders and individuals.
Regarding the tutorial system, students need help in different ways. We present the notion
of the “Precision tutorial system”, whereby tutors should guide students according to the
students’ talents and preference as well as analyze and solve their specific problems. We
believe it is imperative to introduce such a system.
