I believe it’s important to read all the topics of general pathology for clear concepts and better understanding.

You should definitely know these-

Types of cell injury
Necrosis vs apoptosis
hypertrophy, hyperplasia, metaplasia, atrophy
Acute vs chronic inflammation
Chemical mediators of inflammation
Wound healing

You can choose bhalani (updated one) for theory exams but you have to go to seniors and asks them which points to be coverd for practical otherwise you cannot ace tha particular thing

For pharmacology, all the classifications are to be learnt! Start reading them daily and you’ll eventually learn it all . Even if you don’t know the theories, just answering from classification in viva will fetch you good marks

Right! And classification of anti-arrhythmic drugs is clearly one of the toughest nuts to crack, not to undervalue the significance of classification of laxatives. :grinning_face:
