By: Muhammad Salik Note: This article was written when I was in 2nd year and is updated and published now when I am in 4th year because I couldn't complete it then but it might be of some help as it is. As a second year student I think that a substage can be prepared in the last 2-3 day and in extreme cases even on the last day and you can pass. The nerdy freshmen won’t believe what I am saying but they’ll realize soon enough. So at this point, almost all of the new guys are terrified about their first substage. “Will I pass? What If they debar me? What if I cannot pass? What will I tell my parents? Failing this will ruin my internal assessment!” These are some of the questions that we all have. Some overly conscious theetas might even think that there first failure can lead to a chain of failures that will eventually ruin their medical career. Don’t worry don’t panic and don’t over think.

By: Muahmmad Salik Phase 2: Writing an Intro:- *The introduction we submitted for our topic is attached at the end as an exhibit. Not the best example but a feasible one. Introduction has 4 paragraphs: 1) Operational Definitions 2) International content on your topic- Literature review 3) National content on your topic- Literature review 4) Rationale Everything is written as a reference from the researches already done. You read a research from say Pubmed, you find something relevant to your topic, you add it in your intro and put a superscript like this “ 1 ” (by selecting the number and pressing Ctrl+Shift+=) and then you move on and repeat the same till you finish the 500 words intro. Let’s discuss all the headings one by one.

By Muhammad Salik We all have to do Research in Med School. Some are excited for it while others dread it. Whichever one you must be, a Guide to Medical Research always comes in handy to get the best of it without going through unnecessary trouble. The first step is selecting the topic. There are two types of topics: 1) Student based 2) Patient Based. In Student based research you usually assess behaviors and patterns and relate them to something e.g. the research published in 2016 was “The relationship between learning techniques and academic performance”. You need 300 samples for this, which is easy. In patient based research you study different disease, their frequencies in your teaching hospital, their causes/risk factors/determinants and draw a final conclusion. E.g. here we have to have 100 sample patients, which is still easy as the department only assigns to you those topics which get frequent patients in Mayo Hospital, and you have a batch of 10 people so everyone has to
