AUTHORS:

ABSTRACT:

Academic dishonesty, academic misconduct, academic fraud and academic integrity are related concepts that refer to various actions on the part of students that go against the expected norms of a school, university or other learning institution. The mean age of the students was 23.12±2.56 years. Ninety-one students (70%) responded that they cheat in the examinations. Regular educational programmes for students in the form of workshops, debates and talks by prominent academicians from the very first year of medical college would provide the necessary ambience for students to change their perception about misconduct. Keywords: Academic cheating, dishonesty, medical students
