Students learning may be classified according to the sensory modalities using VARK instrument, which categorizes learning modes as visual (V), auditory (A), reading-writing (R), or kinesthetic (K). We administered the VARK questionnaire to our second-year medical students, and 98 of 133 students (74%) returned the completed questionnaire. Only 14.3% of the students preferred a single mode of information presentation. In contrast, most students (85.7%) preferred multiple modes of information presentation. Knowing the students preferred modes and using web-based learning system may help the instructors to tailor to the student's individual preference in the teaching of medical science.
