ABSTRACT
The model for evaluation of the curriculum of a medical course presented in this paper was designed and used in the academic evaluation done in the School of Medicine of Lisandro Alvarado West-Central University, in Venezuela. The model includes an evaluation of program structures, the formulation of objectives, consistency among objectives, subject matter and exercises and between the institution's activities and objectives, the balance between theoretical and practical instruction, and the vertical transfer of the curriculum. Matrices were designed for all the variables used in the evaluation, and permitted the identification of relevant and irrelevant subject matter and of shortcomings in the curriculum that were hindrances to learning.
