The paper proposes a reverse gear model of teaching, learning and assessment, where the student assessment is kept at the center of the circle and all other activities rotate around it. Borrowing the idea from Sangray (2014), the article makes an endeavor to redress the gaps between the teaching and assessment. The proposed reverse gear model is showing 12-sequential steps of teaching, learning and assessment. The model was presented and tested before 50-academicians (Focus Group) during the Staff Development session of the British University in Egypt. Questionnaires addressing some unknown issues of medical science were supplied. After the lecture, the audience could answer all the questions correctly, which was exciting and impressive. Future researcher may test the model with the students or with a different context.
