New sets of isochrones were computed from stellar models for Population I stars, taking into account the effects of mass loss and core overshooting. The star models used are those of Maeder and Meynet (1989) for stars having an initial mass inferior to 12 solar masses, and those of Maeder (1990) for the more massive stars. A comparison with observations showed the need of overshooting for stars with an initial mass superior to 1.6 solar mass. The new sets predict large changes for the age determinations.
