Page 1 of 4: FAQ: How to study smaller subjects ?

agnish · Credits: 1405 My Scrapbook

everybody i guess studies all the major subjects from the standard books. but what about smaller subs like say radiology . is it important to study them from proper text books like say sutton.... or are other smaller review books enuf to get a good rank in AIIMS ? any advice for other small subjects like skin, psychi , anaesth etc ?

Radiology from chapman is good enough...but it is given in a "mug up to remember" style!

U can write down imp points from imp topics & pin them up in the main book, so that u read 'em up with the topic itself. Many answers to q from AIIMS /aipg are there in chapman.

Skin..I cld find answers for almost all of them in harri except good ol' leprosy.

I myself wld like to ask if anyone here knows where to read leprosy from.

Psychi: If u have time definitely read kaplan & saddock. If not niraj ahuja is good. But he doesnt mention the DSM - IV criteria for the diagnosis of the dis. That is just one of the many points where saddock proves to be superior.

Anaesthesia : Again if u have enuf time, u can go for lee. If not..Ajay yadav is a good option. But then Anaesthesia is gettin tougher these days.

I think other boosk like CROSS & SARP...guess all of them have the books and each one has different opinion abt them.

These are completely my views.

I myself wld like to know what others read/ recommend. Esp those who have secured a rank in AIPG/ AIIMS

yeh i had the same books in mind as well . wht i think is that the top ranks are decided on the basis of these subs who have comparatively less weightage coz u have to expect that almost everybody will get the things asked from harrison an the other major books. besides if u put these 3 or 4 subs together they carry a substantial ammnt of marks . plus if u have a look at the refrences in say in asish gupta etc ul ull find refrences even from say grainger an allison. i think thats where the top ranks are decided. have any solution ?

exactly!! i totally i agree with u.. definitely cannot afford ignoring teh smal subjects. Well all i can say abt grainger...HUGE BOOK!!

I think the rest that i have mentioned surely match with ashish amit And MK..wat say? except skin..i suppose. But then, as i said... atleast i cld find the answers to most of the q's in harri

I wld surely like to know what is best for radiotherapy. Any idea???

lets see what others have to say.

All the best to u

Agnish,

well good that u watch many movies... i can ask u "hey what hapened in the sequel of that movie?"

Yes neeta parischa has been creeping up a lot. But then as i already said I really didnt bother to dig into other books of skin!

So parischa, rooks...i have no idea!!!

yeah roxburgh i know is okay size. not small, but not huge either. I had read some text for skin during the dermat post...but that didnt help in the entrances!!

Talkin abt saddock...well the smaller one is definitely smaller than the bigger one!!

Its all abt time actually...or so i feel!!

Al the best. And oh...enjoy the movie
