Methods: The study involved 44 medical students and 15 teachers from the second school semester of 2009. Results: The research subjects perceive the existence and need for evaluation in the medical clinical internship period, possess knowledge of the strategies and items used in the assessment process and understand that this process uses methods with objective and subjective measures, qualitative and quantitative approaches. Conclusions: Greater emphasis on practical content and teacher training is suggested, as well as a final internship check-list.
