To reduce labour and time consumption as also to increase the uniformity, the authors present a free-of-cost MS Excel-2010 workbook for IA calculation of Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) students, which can be adopted for other medical and non-medical courses with suitable minor alterations. This easy-to-use, selfexplanatory and free-of-cost excel workbook can be downloaded from http://www.bmsa.co.in/internal_assessment_excel_tool. Authors expect feedback from the readers and users and the same can be sent to sccpharma@gmail.com
