155 residents who participated in the standardized residency training in neurology department of Second Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from 2016 to 2018 were included

all of whom were medical university graduates. The training duration in neurology department was 3 months. Each physician was assigned the first mock exam to each of his tutors and took the one to one mode to carry out clinical practice teaching. First

theoretical teaching

then clinical observation

and finally clinical practice. In addition

a typical case seminar was held every two weeks. After the combined teaching
