Purpose: Studdy of Curriculum Changes and Sequence of Anatomy Courses on Medical Students Score of Esfahan Medical Sciences University.Materials and Methods: The midterm scores of two groups of medical students both engaged in learning the trunk anatomy and embryology were statistically compared simultaneously. Difference between two groups were as follows: One group had passed limbs anatomy units in previous term, and another group had not passed any anatomy course.Results: The mid scores of the group one in trunk anatomy were 40/03±6/34 (of 65) and in embryology were 28/16±7/22 (of 50) and these scores in group two were 36/64±7/23 and 27/8±7/66 respectively. P value of compared scores were p<000 in both trunk anatomy and embryology.Conclusion: The meaningful difference between two groups scores is mainly due to familiarity of the first group with anatomy nomenclature and skill of three dimensional in carnation obtained during learning the limb anatomy. Although the trunk anatomy and neuroanatomy seems to be the most useful and the most interesting parts of curriculum for medical students , beginning of the curriculum with these two subjects without Any preliminary introduction to anatomy my be difficult and exhausting. Therefore it is better to taking limb anatomy course or having some types of introduction to anatomy before beginning of these two very important subjects.
