There appears to be tremendous variation on what constitutes the "traditional" oral examination. Studies analyzing characteristics of oral examinations vary most often by format and number of examiners. Considering above pros and cons of traditional oral examination and on the basis of examiners' feedback, the new format of viva voce examination is started in the form of "Small Group Structured Oral Examination"(SGSOE). In SGSOE Students will be divided in the small group of 10 to 12 students in each group. They have to sit in chronological order in group. Two examiners will be assigned to group .
