Examiner Tips for MUHS MPT Answers
- Always begin with a brief introduction (3-5 lines) stating the importance of the topic
- Use headings, sub-headings, and numbered lists - examiners scan, not read
- Include at least one diagram/table (cervical ROM table, Kirkaldy-Willis stages table, dermatome-myotome-reflex table)
- Cite at least 2-3 books + 2 recent studies per answer
- Write a structured conclusion summarizing clinical implications
- Introduction + 3-4 main points + clinical application + recent evidence = ideal structure
- One table or diagram adds significant marks
- Keep each point concise but clinically precise
