This paper reports the implementation, findings and feedback of the audit project of the general practice (GP) module carried out in the fifth year of the MBChB (Sheffield) twinning programme with the Perak College of Medicine. After training, each student with his/her GP tutor planned and conducted the audit. All 28 students (year 2002) satisfactorily completed their audit projects. Fifty percent did an audit of hypertension, 36% on diabetes, 7% on asthma and one each (3.5%) on upper respiratory tract infection and client satisfaction. It was the GP tutors first experience at audit in their clinics. The majority of indicators of care audited did not meet the set target standards.
