Hey
Hey! How can I help you today?
In 10 days, there are my MBBS first year exam. Of R U H S. Now tell me... What chapters I should study from anatomy, physiology, and biochemistry to just pass because I don't have so much of time.

Here's your 10-day survival guide for RUHS MBBS First Year - based on RUHS previous year papers and standard exam patterns. These are the most repeatedly asked, high-yield topics to just pass.
ANATOMY (2 Papers)
Paper I - Upper Limb, Lower Limb, Thorax
Must-do topics:
- Brachial plexus - formation, branches, injuries (Erb's palsy, Klumpke's) - asked EVERY year
- Carpal tunnel - contents, carpal tunnel syndrome
- Rotator cuff muscles
- Femoral triangle - boundaries, contents
- Popliteal fossa - boundaries, contents
- Knee joint - ligaments, menisci, blood supply
- Shoulder joint - dislocation, relations
- Axilla - boundaries and contents
- Cubital fossa - contents
- Heart - blood supply (coronary arteries), conducting system, chambers
- Lungs - lobes, fissures, bronchopulmonary segments
Paper II - Head, Neck, Abdomen, Neuroanatomy
Must-do topics:
- Hippocampus and limbic system
- 4th ventricle - floor, relations
- Larynx - cartilages, muscles, nerve supply
- Sympathetic ganglia - cervical chain
- Cavernous sinus - contents, tributaries
- Facial nerve - course, branches, applied
- Portal circulation and portosystemic anastomoses
- Inguinal canal - boundaries, contents (hernia asked every year!)
- Kidney - relations, blood supply, ureter course
- Circle of Willis
- Spinal cord - tracts (ascending + descending)
PHYSIOLOGY (2 Papers)
Paper I - General, Blood, CVS, Respiratory
Must-do topics:
- Resting membrane potential & action potential - mechanism, ionic basis
- Cardiac cycle - phases, pressure-volume loop
- ECG - waves, intervals, what they represent
- Heart sounds - S1, S2, S3, S4
- Cardiac output - Fick's principle, measurement
- Blood groups - ABO, Rh, transfusion reactions
- Haemoglobin - types, O2 dissociation curve (shifts!)
- Coagulation cascade - intrinsic + extrinsic, PT, APTT
- Ventilation-perfusion ratio
- Surfactant - composition, functions, deficiency
Paper II - Renal, GIT, Endocrine, Neurophysiology
Must-do topics:
- GFR - factors affecting, autoregulation
- Juxtaglomerular apparatus - RAAS
- Insulin - mechanism, effects, secretion
- Thyroid hormones - synthesis, T3/T4, effects
- Synapse - types, neurotransmitters
- Neuromuscular junction - events, blocking agents
- Reflex arc - spinal reflexes (knee jerk, Babinski)
- Gastric secretion - phases (cephalic, gastric, intestinal)
BIOCHEMISTRY (2 Papers)
Paper I - Biomolecules, Metabolism
Must-do topics:
- Glycolysis - steps, energetics, key enzymes, regulation
- TCA cycle (Krebs cycle) - steps, yield, regulation
- Electron transport chain - complexes, ATP yield, inhibitors
- Gluconeogenesis - substrates, key enzymes (bypass reactions)
- Glycogen metabolism - synthesis/breakdown, glycogen storage diseases
- Beta-oxidation of fatty acids - steps, energetics
- Cholesterol synthesis - HMG-CoA reductase (statin target)
- Enzyme kinetics - Km, Vmax, Michaelis-Menten, inhibition types
Paper II - Molecular Biology, Nutrition, Clinical
Must-do topics:
- DNA replication - enzymes involved, steps
- Transcription - RNA types, promoter, RNA pol
- Translation - ribosome structure, codons, post-translational modification
- PCR - steps, applications
- Vitamins - fat-soluble (A, D, E, K) and water-soluble (B-complex, C) - deficiency diseases
- Hemoglobin disorders - sickle cell, thalassemia (biochemical basis)
- Nucleotide metabolism - gout (uric acid, xanthine oxidase)
- Urea cycle - steps, enzymes, hyperammonemia
10-Day Study Plan (Rough)
| Days | Focus |
|---|---|
| Day 1-2 | Anatomy Paper I high-yield (Brachial plexus, joints, heart) |
| Day 3-4 | Anatomy Paper II (Neuroanatomy, abdomen, head-neck) |
| Day 5-6 | Physiology (CVS, Blood, Action potential) |
| Day 7 | Physiology (Renal, Endocrine, Neuro) |
| Day 8 | Biochemistry Paper I (Metabolism pathways) |
| Day 9 | Biochemistry Paper II (Molecular biology, vitamins) |
| Day 10 | Rapid revision - short notes + PYQs |
Key Tips
- Focus on short-answer questions (SAQs) - RUHS papers heavily test 5-10 mark SAQs on topics like "enumerate branches of brachial plexus" or "steps of glycolysis."
- Draw diagrams - even rough labeled diagrams earn marks (brachial plexus, cardiac cycle, coagulation cascade).
- Applied/clinical aspects get marks - always write 1-2 lines of clinical relevance.
- Previous year papers from firstranker.com are gold - pattern repeats very often in RUHS.
Best of luck - 10 days is enough to pass if you stick to these topics!
I said don't give me topics give me chapterss
