To prepare without last-minute panic:
- Create a study schedule
- Break down complex topics
- Practice past-year questions and mock tests
- Review regularly
- Stay organized and manage time effectively
For practicals, practice hands-on skills and review lab manuals.
For viva, anticipate questions, practice responses, and stay calm.
Though easier said then done, never gave a single exam without panicking.
Studying everyday .
Go to ur room and read everything that has been taught that day . It’ll hardly take u an hr or two but you’ll be able to retain it very well . A huge chunk of the syllabus will be covered if you follow this strategy even for half yr
•Study the day to day topic.
•Revise it on the weekend, that what and all topics studied in that week and practice mcq’s.
•Make a concise notes.
•Stick flowchart and diagrams on wall, as can be seen and registered in our mind while walking in front of it.
•To study practicals, main thing is to regularly attend every practical classes and clinical posting.
•Try it on your classmates-Check BP, vitals and other examinations.
•Go to ward and practice history taking.
•For viva, study all definitions and cover important areas that you want to have somewhat idea about the question invigilator is asking.
•For middle register number students will get questions from the prior 1st gone students. 
To avoid last-minute panic, start early with a realistic study schedule, revise theory regularly in small chunks, and practice writing answers. For practicals, watch demos, understand procedures, and practice steps out loud. For viva, revise key topics, discuss with friends, and simulate Q&A sessions. Staying consistent, sleeping well, and taking short breaks can keep you calm and confident.
