(Ref. Indian Medical Gazette, March 1907, p.101).

The classes were conducted in a temporary wooden building in the compound of the Rangoon General Hospital. The clinical training in medicine and surgery was conducted at the Rangoon General Hospital, but the students had to go to India for practical training in midwifery at the Government Maternity Hospital in Madras, as male students were not allowed to enter the Dufferin Maternity Hospital.

(Ref. Indian Medical Gazette 1914, p.447)

There were objections to this arrangement because the period of practical training was after the period of theoretical teaching. Normally, both should be imparted during the same period of study. Moreover, it was expensive and inconvenient for the students. Anyhow, this arrangement of training had to be accepted, as there were difficulties for establishing a Government Maternity Hospital in Yangon.

(Ref. The Indian Med. Gazette, Nov. 1914, p.447).

It was only in the year 1927 that the students were allowed for their practical training in midwifery at the Dufferin Hospital.

(Ref. Annual report of the workings of the Burma Medical School for the year 1926-27).

The school commenced with 15 students and the first batch passed their final examination in November 1910, as qualified Sub- assistant Surgeons.

(Ref. Indian Medical Gazette, Sept. 1910, p. 363).

It was found that 10 out of 12 final year students passed their exam in 1913 and 8 out of 9 in 1914. There were 173 students on the rolls and one half of them belonged to Burmese ethnic race and other races residing in the country.

(Ref. Report of the Administration of Burma, 1922-23, p.99)

When Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (M.B.,B.S) degree course was introduced in 1923-24, the teaching of Anatomy and Physiology for L. M P. course was carried out along with M.B.,B.S. Course as it was thought that such a procedure would improve the quality of L.M.P. students.

(Ref. Annual report of the workings of Burma Government Medical School for the year 1930-31).

The intake of new students to L.M.P. course was stopped in 1926, and it was resumed in 1927.
