Analyse these KNRUHS pyqs and sort priority wise the most repeated most likely to appear again and less likely to be asked

I've extracted the data from the images. Now let me compile and analyze the frequency data from all 8 pages to rank questions by priority.

Based on all 8 pages of the KNRUHS Anatomy Question Bank (Paper I - Upper Limb), here is the full priority-sorted analysis:

Dorsal Digital Expansion (Nov-1994)
Acromio-clavicular Joint (Nov-1994)
Radial nerve in the upper arm (Jan-1987)

Quick Reference Summary for Last-Minute Prep

MUST PREPARE (do these no matter what):

Shoulder Joint (all aspects)
Brachial Plexus (formation, relations, branches, applied)
Axillary Artery (course, relations, branches, applied)
Ulnar Nerve in Hand
Anastomosis around elbow joint
Axillary Nerve
Lymphatic drainage of Breast/Mammary Gland
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Flexor Retinaculum of Hand
Mid Palmar Space

HIGH VALUE SHORT NOTES:

Median Cubital Vein
Lumbricals
Palmar Aponeurosis
Rotator Cuff
Axillary Lymph Nodes
Supinators of Forearm
Cubital Fossa contents/boundaries

Note: The shoulder joint is by far the single most asked topic in this PYQ bank - it has appeared as a long question in at least 9 different exams spanning 1999 to 2021. Brachial plexus and axillary artery are the next most reliable bets.
