Results and discussion: No significant difference was found in weightage for the blueprint, whether using the number of specific learning outcomes, contact hours, or importance of the themes or topics (p-values were less than 0.05).
Conclusion: Weightage of the blueprint can be done in a flexible and relevant method. No significant difference was reported between the three methods.
