1st Year IMPORTANT TOPICS (Anatomy)
By Farkhanda Qaiser
Okay finally here it is. The all-important guide for the 1st year students. I’ve compiled all the prof and sendup questions of last year as well as the remnants of class tests that I had.
But before you go on to read them, keep in mind the following very tested tidbits:
For profs, NEVER leave any topic untouched and unread. Go through all topics so that in viva, you have atleast some idea about what the examiner is asking.
NEVER lose your sendup question paper because there are high chances that some of the questions will be repeated in profs as you can see in the following example of anatomy question paper and same goes for the MCQs. Most of them are repeated. So here’s what we had done, in our facebook class group, we had made a discussion topic, and everyone told the MCQs of sendups and discussed them. Well, you may think us nerds or whatever but trust me that discussion proved very fruitful for all those who participated in it.
I think enough has bin said about organizing yourself and keeping focused during your preparation but here’s what I have to add. Keep in touch with your friends because it always turns out that one or the other gets her/his hand on some important topics and they prove very beneficial.
Lastly, for prof viva, MAKE sure that you ask the people before you which questions were asked from them because once again, the questions are mostly repeated.
And oh yeah, BEST of LUCK to everyone.
InshaAllah you’ll do great!
P.S. please do remember me in your prayers. My prof prep practically sucks! =(
