      ab: Objective: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the e-learning of medical specialties in Jordan at different grade levels and to investigate students' satisfaction and opinions about this teaching method. Design: retrospective cross-sectional questionnaire-based study Methods: The opinions of 415 students from various medical specialties were collected using a web-based questionnaire delivered via google forms to evaluate the quality of the education system from various aspects. Results: More than half of the students felt that e-learning was easy to use. The majority of students believe that the instructor did not cover the material completely. Most students actively emphasized the need for clinical reinforcement of what they learned, and they still highly value face-to-face traditional learning as irreplaceable. Analysis of the responses by grade level revealed statistically significant differences in responses to different questions among students. Conclusion: Even though e-learning is an effective and well-managed learning method, it cannot completely replace traditional face-to-face teaching, especially in the clinical grades of medical undergraduates, but it can be considered as a supplementary method in situations such as the previous COVID 19-related lockdown.
