So guys how many of you would be joining rmc this year?Let's have a general discussion!
And if there are any seniors around,some kind of guidance would be highly appreciated and I really wanted to know the books we need to get
Hey there im in rmc, ur senior n i hope to c u while ragging
Well rmc is a vry prestigious clg n inshaallah u'll b proud of being a part of it.. studies are kindda tough. I mean there will b tests terms substages all time all year :/ but u'll get used to it soon. Teachers are good. Some are vry dedicated to teaching n their lectures will really help u but most of them do copy pasting frm books n u dont get a word of them into ur brain. But as u are now in a med clg so u have to study by urself. I suggest the following books which i used n are recommended by senior most teachers..
Anatomy:
Rj last's anatomy, snells, dr amir qayyum..
General anatomy by dr munawar farooq
Langmans embryology.. n laiq hussain histology( i never read this book. Prepared frm manual n firdous )
Physiology:
Guyton, firdous, brs.
Biochemistry:
Harpers biochemistry, satya, lippincot (mushtaq for carbohydrates)
Hope it helped.. c u soon.
Thankyou so much for the detailed reply Hina!
Are these the only books we need to buy or there are some other as well?
I think these tests etc will make us more prepared for the proffs right?so they shoudn't be a problem
LOL...what kind of ragging would we have to endure? any hints??
Hoping to see you soon too!
ohh and one thing more what sort of interview do they take?Just the routine medical checkup or anything else?
And I haven't been vaccinated for enteric...so is it necessary to give the proof in the medical certificate regarding that?
Just keep one thing in mind............there are some books that are for concepts and some books for passing exam
for anatomy KLM is for concepts and BD chaurasia is to pass (cuz most of our teachers have used BD during their mbbs ).......so without it , you are in a bit trouble
you can use snell too.......it is precise and to the point
for physiology Guyton as standard book...........but there are some things that are not in guyton ........... but in mushtaq.......so u need to read mushtaq to be on a safe side ...........for example many topics of Blood , nerve and types of hypoxia and cyanosis are in mushtaq........so do buy it because it is sir inam's favorite book and you will need it in RMC especially.....
firdos is a helpful book , especially during HOD sir naeem's viva
BRS is must if u aim for step 1 and high marks
you can also use ganong if u like........
for biochemistry , harper and lipincott ........and again mushtaq ....... ( satya is good but mushtaq is our HOD's favourite book so i prefer mushtaq )
you will notice that madam Riffat's lectures are totally from mushtaq so she will ask questions from mushtaq in annual viva )
Now we come to ragging
i dont do it so dont worry
Lolzzzz
- - - Updated - - -
for histology di fiore's atlas only (liaq hussain if u like)
for embryology langman and KLM embryology (some topics from langman , some from KLM)
Thankyou so much for your input
I have already bought most of the books you have mentioned....but im really worried about anatomy.I find it so difficult and don't even understand what is taught in the class and i find it difficult to follow any specific book.Although we have mam gaiti but i still dont get anything
Can you guide how i should study for bones??
And i was not ragged luckily
For bones Bd is best.. it gives u every little detail. Bones are very imp as they are mostly first question in vivas so prepare them well.. n anatomy is not difficult.. its just that in start we dont know how n what to study but after doing first region ull understand everything easily n will get used to it. Thats what happened to me.
can anyone tell me about dpt in rmc???
is there any disection in dpt???
