Solar Evolutionary Models are briefly reviewed and while the models are robust, there are uncertainties in the input data which justify rather larger errors. The 1992 experimental results from GALLEX, SAGE II and Kamiokande are shown to be consistent with calculated fluxes of solar neutrinos whereas the Chlorine results continue to be significantly low though this experiment has a problem with the high variability with time of its results in contradiction to Kamiokande. It is concluded that the evidence for a solar neutrino problem is not compelling and New Physics are not demanded. Further experiments are essential to search for neutrino masses and to study the Sun.
