Abstract	Emotional Intelligence plays a crucial role in the well-being and over all personality development of the students’ community which means, being able to understand and manage self as well as others. As self-awareness (SA) takes the center stage, this paper attempts to assess the level of SA among medical college students in Tamil Nadu. The sample size of this cross-sectional study was 197 drawn on convenient sampling basis. The data were collected through Structured Questionnaire based on Daniel Goleman’s ESCI (Emotional and Social Competency Network) model. The study concluded that most of the students were well aware of self and there exists significant difference between gender and age of the students and the domains of self-awareness except emotional awareness. It is also found that locality does not play a significant role in the concept of knowing thyself and the factors influencing self are not strongly connected to geographical differences.
