be careful about this...it varies for different schools. The competition is increasing every year and many schools actually depend on your scores. Don't go into the entrance test with the mindset that it isn't important. For more info about entrance tests and find out how others are studying read the following thread:

entering on a local seat is a lot cheaper than paying foreign fees. but just a warning...if the local students find out that you took a local seat they may hold it against you

if u have a grip on these three books b4 u enter the college, n do not get fooled by the over ambitious (basically lying) professors who tell u to read guyton, grays, snell, harper lippincott etc. the end exam will DEFINITELY come from these three books. u may even get the top rank if your rep is good and with the headstart u now have - not kidding. |
Different schools follow different books. make sure to ask other students which books they're reading from (although be careful in that they might not always be willing to tell you the truth).
