Here is the complete marks distribution for 1st Year MBBS (Phase I) under KUHS (Kerala University of Health Sciences), based on the KUHS MBBS Course Regulations 2023 (applicable to students admitted from 2019 onwards):
KUHS 1st Year MBBS - Phase I Marks Distribution
Phase I subjects: Anatomy, Physiology, Biochemistry
University Examination Pattern (per subject)
| Component | Details |
|---|---|
| Theory | 2 papers x 100 marks each = 200 marks |
| Practical + Viva | 100 marks |
| Total University Exam | 300 marks |
- Each theory paper is 3 hours duration
- Theory Paper 1 and Paper 2 each = 100 marks (MCQs + Short answers + Long answers/essays)
- 5% of theory marks test AETCOM (professional development) competencies
Internal Assessment (IA) - Conducted by College
| Component | Max Marks |
|---|---|
| Theory IA | 500 |
| Practical IA | 500 |
| Total IA | 1000 |
Minimum IA marks to be eligible to appear for University Exam:
- Theory: 200/500 (40%)
- Practical: 200/500 (40%)
- Aggregate: 500/1000 (50%)
IA is NOT added to University exam marks. It is displayed as a separate head on the marksheet.
PCT (Progress Check Tests) & Prelim exam maximum marks:
| Assessment | Theory Max | Practical Max |
|---|---|---|
| PCT | 100 | 100 |
| Prelims | 200 | 100 |
Pass Criteria
| Condition | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Aggregate (Theory + Practical) | Minimum 50% of total marks |
| Theory minimum | Minimum 40% of total theory marks (both papers together - no separate minimum per paper) |
| Practical minimum | Minimum 40% of total practical marks |
- No grace marks for passing
- A candidate failing in any subject must appear for that entire subject (theory + practical + viva) in the next attempt
- A candidate must clear all Phase I subjects (Anatomy, Physiology, Biochemistry) to be promoted to Phase II
Summary Table (per subject - University Exam)
| Subject | Theory (Paper I) | Theory (Paper II) | Theory Total | Practical/Viva | Grand Total (Univ) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Anatomy | 100 | 100 | 200 | 100 | 300 |
| Physiology | 100 | 100 | 200 | 100 | 300 |
| Biochemistry | 100 | 100 | 200 | 100 | 300 |
| Phase I Total | 900 |
Key Points to Remember
- IA and University exam marks are separate - IA does not add to your university score but is required for eligibility.
- You need minimum 40% in theory aggregate AND 40% in practical AND 50% overall to pass.
- Phase I is cleared only when you pass all 3 subjects - Anatomy, Physiology, and Biochemistry.
- The regulations apply under the CBME (Competency-Based Medical Education) 2019 scheme.

I now have all the key information directly from the official KUHS CBME 2019 Phase 1 syllabus. Here is the complete breakdown:
KUHS 1st Year MBBS - Physiology: Topic-wise Distribution
Paper I vs Paper II - Topic Division
| Paper I | Paper II |
|---|---|
| 1. Haematology | 1. General Physiology |
| 2. Cardiovascular System | 2. Neurophysiology |
| 3. Respiratory System | 3. Special Senses |
| 4. Renal Physiology | 4. Nerve & Muscle Physiology |
| 5. Environmental Physiology | 5. Endocrine Physiology |
| 6. Gastrointestinal System | 6. Reproductive Physiology |
| 7. Skin & Temperature Regulation | 7. Growth & Development |
Question Pattern (Each Paper - 100 Marks, 3 Hours)
| Question Type | Number | Marks Each | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Long Essays | 2 | 10 | 20 |
| - 1 Clinical scenario-based (structured essay) | |||
| - 1 Non-clinical structured essay | |||
| Short Essays | 6 | 6 | 36 |
| Short Answers | 6 | 4 | 24 |
| - 3 Physiological basis questions | |||
| - 3 Diagram-based questions | |||
| MCQs | 20 | 1 | 20 |
| Total | 100 |
MCQ Sub-types (within the 20 MCQs)
| MCQ Type | Marks |
|---|---|
| Clinical scenario-based (5 sub-questions) | 5 |

Note: 5% of marks in each paper test AETCOM (Attitude, Ethics & Communication) competencies - typically as 1 short essay or short answer question per paper.
Practical Examination (Total: 100 marks)
| Component | Marks |
|---|---|
| Practical I (Experiments + OSPE) | ~40 |
| Practical II (Hematology + Clinical) | ~40 |

Viva marks are added to Practical, not Theory.
Quick Summary
| Component | Marks |

| Paper I (Theory) | 100 |
| Paper II (Theory) | 100 |
| Practical + Viva | 100 |
| University Exam Total | 300 |

Here's the honest picture based on thorough research:
KUHS Physiology Paper I - Topic-wise Marks Weightage
Important note first: KUHS does not publish a fixed per-topic marks blueprint for Physiology in its official CBME 2019 syllabus. The syllabus only lists the 7 topics per paper without assigning fixed marks to each.
However, based on the NMC CBME framework (which all universities including KUHS follow), and the blueprints published by other NMC-compliant universities (SSAHE, BLDE, MGM), the standard approximate weightage for Paper I topics is:
Paper I - Approximate Topic-wise Marks (out of 100)
| Topic | Approx. Marks | Weightage |
|---|---|---|
| Haematology | ~20 | High |
| Cardiovascular System | ~25 | Highest |
| Respiratory System | ~20 | High |
| Renal Physiology | ~15 | Moderate |
| Gastrointestinal System | ~10 | Moderate |
| Environmental Physiology | ~5 | Low |
| Skin & Temperature Regulation | ~5 | Low |
| AETCOM | ~5 (1 question) | Fixed |
| Total | ~100 |
So Haematology carries approximately 20 marks out of 100 in Paper I - making it one of the three most important topics along with CVS and Respiratory.
What Haematology typically covers in those ~20 marks:
Based on past KUHS question papers, haematology questions appear as:
- 1 Long Essay (10 marks): e.g., Describe the formation and fate of haemoglobin / Explain erythropoiesis
- 1-2 Short Essays (6 marks each): e.g., Blood groups, Coagulation cascade, Anaemia
- 2-3 MCQs (1 mark each): from haematology topics
Key caveat
KUHS has not published a fixed blueprint - the 20-mark figure for Haematology is a well-established approximation from NMC guidelines and past paper analysis, not a guaranteed fixed allocation. The actual distribution can vary slightly between exam sessions. For the most accurate breakdown, check with your Physiology department or refer to previous years' KUHS question papers.
