  1. Table 6 is comparing pre-test and post-test knowledge practical skill scores for each residency level separately which showed improvement of the scores at all residency levels, and by comparing the pre-test knowledge and practical skill scores, it showed significant difference between the four different resident levels with p values of 0.003 and <0.001 respectively. On the contrary, there were no significant differences in the post-test knowledge and practical skills among the four different resident levels
