Methods: A prospective study was conducted in various semester studies in different subjects. A questionnaire was given for comparison between students who attended flipped classroom and those who did not, evaluation was done, results were analysed. A systematic search of English databases including Pubmed, EMBASE, Science director, CINAHL and google scholar, Chinese databases, were conducted to identify peer review studies that met the inclusion criteria. Conclusions: These results indicated that flipped classroom might help medical students improve in knowledge, skills, attitudes, self learning, study satisfaction, critical thinking and problem solving skills.
