Anatomy20 Questions6.7%Moderate
Time to Complete: 3-4 weeks
Approach
Visual learning is key. Use diagrams, 3D models, and clinical correlations. Focus on applied anatomy.
High-Yield Topics
Brachial Plexus & InjuriesCranial Nerves - Course & ClinicalHeart Development & AnomaliesGIT Embryology - Gut RotationBlood Supply of BrainVertebral Column & Spinal CordKnee Joint & ACL/PCLInguinal Canal & Hernias
Common Mistakes
- •Ignoring embryology - high-yield in recent exams
- •Not correlating with clinical scenarios
- •Studying histology in too much detail
