middle constrictor arises from posterolat aspect

it is my doubt.

what should be the ans if we have to choose 1

vineetgsvm · Credits: 122703 My Scrapbook

jus wish u don have these choices then...may be in such cases both options are treated as true if given

but vineet AIPGE pple do play with us n ask such Q.

uunhh i'l go in ashish amit mudit style..

"well frns ans is both but still we have to choose one.. i'l go 4 genioglossi cos it is entirely attached to this .. constrictor has got many attachments..
so more imp is genioglossus.. so mark genioglossus if Q comes..."

or........" i leave upto u wht u can decide as ans mark that "

kalika that was sweet.....

shraddha · Credits: 19570 My Scrapbook

as ashish gupta style

don't be surprised
the answer given is middle pharyngeal constrictor

well shradha...
it is for sure tht we cant choose one out of these two..
but now as ans is constrictor..
.. "so i told u na.. reach at one option n mark tht n do mail me ur views...

"

now serious..
shradha i ve talked to few AIPGE , AIIMS toppers ..wht they say AIPGE xam has 2-5 dummy Q... means ans is either more thn one or none.. n we r supposed to leave them..cos marking em will fetch negatives only...
well.. i vent believed this fully..cos i ve heard paper setter has to give proper ref. in the key.. but the dielema tht dummy q exist or not will continue..
but it is a fact tht we do come across many q which have more option corect..
n my strategy 4 these is to leave cos we can safely leave 20-30 Q knowing merrit cant touch 90% ever...
anyways..
all the best
kalika

if me given a choice i will go with genioglossus.
kalika's reason is quiet rite that it is entirely attached while m const has other attachments too
