Information Technology refers to the deliverance of learning modes through internet resources and technologies in order to enhance the performance, skill and learning of the learners. This research deals with the impact of Information Technology techniques on medical education. Using cross-sectional study design we evaluated the impact of Information Technology on medical education of 200 medical students (sample size) in three months. We analyzed data through SPSS. The evidence is available for the acceptance of Information Technology in the field of medical science. Among the various means of IT based learning, video lectures are the most popular among medical students. Our study has revealed that Information Technology offers learners’ control over content, the pace of learning, and time thus it is more preferable than traditional learning. Results of this study reveal that there is a positive association between usage of Information Technology techniques and better academic performance among medical students. In a nutshell, Information Technology may be termed as the right knowledge at the right time in the right place. Keywords: Impact, Information Technology, Medical Education, Medical Students.
