After getting 88,i got my first interview call from boston
its been a hard long walk,BUT was worth it
Iam planning to help any one and everyone out there,it was a long process had no guidance.
if u guys wanna discuss any subject,we can do starting with wat to study ,to type of ques asked in each subject,the books to refer
Dental decks is not enough,its bull**** to think so.

Physiology Usml videos and lecture notes
Day 1
Chapter 1 is very important,red cell in saline ,glucose ,swells or shrinks
is a most common question,what happens to rbc in dehygration,during exercise
Chapter 2 is cell mechanics i know its a drag,but understanding this makes mechanics of cardiac cell,skeletal, smooth muscle easy.Get your basics right,there is always a question in the exam on muscle skeletal muscle & ca channels in contraction,we really have to know this
All this takes 4 hrs
Time for respiration ,i know the basics get repeated but you really have to know about pulmonary mechanics,hypoxia,respiratory distress,surfactant, the lectures take 3 hours to complte
Make your notes ,so you can make revision easy,you need to revise every other day ,your own hand written lecture notes are your bible for this.
Cardio vascular system is the best in the videos,i know it takes another 4 hours but in 2 days ,You can cover all this and excretory system.

CardioVascular system
Mean electrical axis of the heart ,anyone ??it is the most commonest question these days,it is in the lecture notes,though not discussed in the video.
Read my blog for the rest of the review on CVS

Respiratory system
Lung volumes, one which cannot be measured,yup u r right its..residual volume the most commonest question.
Respiratory system is actually very interesting and easy to remember ,nothing much to memorize,its like domino falling in motion,one after the other.
Increase in rate of breathing ,increases in total ventilation and no increase in alveolar ventilation ...the concept is worth reading
Lung Recoil and intrapleural pressure,Dont get confused with intrapleural pressure ,intra alveolar pressure,dont be in a rush to finish this chapter ,give yourself 3-4 hrs to finish it
Exam questions are based more on................continued in my blog,click on the link below

Its from usml notes and video lectures,I swear by them,they are vast.But Dr.John Barrone and you are now the CSI team,he tells you in the introduction what real pathologist look like ,well thats his humour ,his throat gives up during the lecture but he goes on non stop, 4 hr lectures in one shot ,30 hrs in 2 days,he pulls your hand and drags you along with him,keep ur scribbling pads ready,and just go along with him
Ready steady here we go
Chapter 1 Usml lectures notes chapter 1 to 5 ,Video Lecture series 1

Well you know where to go .................click on the link below

Chapter 1
Is basic ,Fundamentals of pathology -staining ,well nothing much here ,eosin,haemotoxylin,and the rest, congo red is used for staining? u guessed it amyloid.

Chapter 2 Cellular Injuries

Hypoxia, infections, immunological reasctions, nutrition imbalance, myocardial ischemia, all the cellular responses to injuries, reversible and irreversible reactions, necrosis,apoptosis, pigmentaion, calcification, every word of this chapter is very important.
Dr.John takes an hour to complete but you can definitely breeze through it.
Dont forget to make your notes, cos u may have to revise the whole pathology in 2 hours before the exam.As I said earlier, it helps if you start from the first chapter. i know ur hands give up but still its worth it, every word scribbled is worth its weight in gold

chapter 3 of the lecture notes is part of the 1st video . It deals with inflammation. well, this is in a way the most important chapter of pathology so make sure u go through it ..................................

Start with lecture 1 which is histology video,keep the lecture notes open
its a 4 hr lecture ,you will cover the entire histo by that time,Add a hour to revise.
Then switch on to Achland head neck,upper limb and trunk
you will be good with entire gross anatomy[1day]
Back to usml lecture 2 embr,lecture 3 uppr limb,lect 4 head neck,back,thorax
you are basically done ..do lecture Cns [ANS]
Cns study from brs as usml cns extensive not needed

Studying pathology as i mentioned earlier is easy,its all about picking up the key points,one of my friends stated which are the points to be left out from Usml as it is vast,so heres doing a review on Vascular pathology the diseases and key points to rememeber,if you think there are few points to be added ,please do so in your coments.I would very much appreciate your feed back,lets make it both ways .
Vascular pathology
1.Polyarteritis nodosa affects any organ kidney ,git tract mucle except LUNGS this is akey point,hep b antigen is positive in most cases.
2.Wegeners granulomatosis is Bilateral pneumonitis and Renal cresenteric glomerulonephritis
3.Temporal arteritis -Giant cell arteritis-headache is a common clinical feature,visual dusturbances- lead to blindness.Elevated ESR

Hi Mkt,
Thank you for the wishes,wish you the same the last 3 weeks,are the most important days,AS actually all your major studying happens only now,this is the time to push yourself as much as you can,you'v been warming upall these days,time for the kill now.Hope you have made your notes,keep the little book open,REVISE,revise revise as much you can,at least 5 hours a day ,2 hours on q banks,if u have really studied your basics you will finish decks each subject 2 hrs flat.Keep 2 hours to study something new,some thinng you have always pushed behind,now is the time.Your minds needs to stay focussed ,excited .
DONT FREAK OUT even if u forget something,its okay you have enough time to do it all.The last 10 days makes us the winner or loser.Just forget the exam keep going, stick to your schedule,dont let the nerves get you.
YOU know it all ,you have really studied ,its all going to come back to you.BELIEVE IN YOURSELF.The exam is a mental test ,its all about how much you can remember.

BIOCHEM cycles...Since all the cycles are connected ,its easier writing them down and sticking then inside your closet or the walls... connect them start from carbs,fats,proteins and ETC till ATp production.YOU can do this in 2 hours flat.[I used to stick in my bathroom ,well thats me ..lol] .
Pay special attention to UREA cycle its always been a board favourite.
Glycogen storage and lipid storage disorders.Diabetics and phenlketonuria[aspartame].Proteins...i hope u rememember V.O.M.I.T ---succinycholine.
Dna library,sangers ,western blot all from molecular biochem.
Nervous system its always better to start with anatomy or physio do the motar area,premotar area ,optic,temporal area ,ascending descending tracts,make arrow diagrams for all including pain pathways,all this will also take 2 -3 hours max one day work.Its all related as the biochem cycles.Write them and stick them.When you keep staring at them everyday it makes it so easy to rememeber on the Dday.Cavernous sinus--Int Jug vein,circle of willis,CSF formation and drainage,is another board favourite.
Dont go in depth with usml CNs its NOT NEEDED
Just make sure you know SYm and PARAsym all their ganglia .
Thats enough in CNS.Will go through it again and let you know if i missed anything.
GOOD LUCK.

Hi Red,
Thankyou for your kind & prompt reply. Like you said I TRY TO KEEP THE TENSION AT BAY without thinking about the exam , but concentrating on what to study,thankyou for your honest tips....I believe like you said its the last 10 days & your mind set that makes you a winner or otherwise.I pray to God to keep me in the right mindset till the exams.Thankyou for your encouraging words,thats what I missed all these days......words from a friend I have never met:)
Red, i shall follow your advice on Biochem,with the cycles and also with Nervous system.I like the way you give a time frame for each subject, helped me a lot coz otherwise I have the tendency to go on and on in too much detail,this way I stick to the schedule.Thanks.I really appreciate your kindness & Thankyou for taking time for helping us.God bless.Do drop in a line or two whenever you can on this thread, its got great momentum..........like a stone dropped in a lake,the ripples spread far & wide:).Thankyou.

Hi Sdq
If you have started path finish it in one go,the important topics are chapter 1-5 ,inflammation,Respiratory,Cvs,Neoplasm ,Kidneys,vascular disorders,thrombosis,emboli,shock.Neoplam is very important,carcinogens both viral,chemical,cancer causing genes,you can leave out male and female genital disoders except prostrate hypertrohy.make your notes and keep going.
Just kind off busy at the moment ,will do the reviews asap.
About physiology its the same,important chapters in order are endocrines,Cvs,resp.excretory u really have to do these really well.Skeletal,cardiac and smooth muscle,cell the first 5 chapters are worth going thro[usml lectures].
PHysio and biochem are the most difficult subjects to score 90 plus as questions are never straight and are confusing.So spend some time doing them well.
Good Luck

Red has done a pretty good job of outlining topics that you need to focus on. Being anymore specific would violate the non-disclosure clause examinees sign when taking the exam.

Click to expand...

You need to do upper limb..is..[shoulder,arm,& forearm]
There are 8-10 questions from here
Based on Arterial supply
nerve supply of the muscles
action of the muscles
Adductors ,abductors
Damage to nerves eg radian n or ulnar n damage where? what happens?
Upper limb is very important,Achland for gross anatomy and usml video part 4 first part for clinical anatomy is more than enough .
Dont blindly memorize ,try to understand it so you rememeber on your exam day.
Good Luck

OMG ... Redroulette , Im so terribly surprised by your effort to help others , these days ppl like you are very rare .Good Job . :thumbup:

I have read the whole thread right from the beg and finally I have just one question on my mind . I am a re-taker and its been a couple of years before I attempted last . So I was just wondering doing a NBDE Kaplan 3 months course for PArt 1 is required or just doing all the preps with all the materials that you have suggested is enough . The only reason why I am thinking of taking the KP course is coz of the time interval that I had .

In short my qstn is "is Kpln course really helpful or waste of time n money ? " Plz answer at your convenience .

Once again, though a newcomer in this forum, I greatly appreciate your deeds . God Bless you and Best WIshes for your DDS :) .. keep going !!:)

Hey iam glad my thread helps
Regarding kapan centre,if you are starting and wanna get started ,then its good,as you have access to the videos [but you can view them only there].If you can study on your own you dont need the kaplan centre why waste 699$,all you need is the study material,videos etc which can be easily got in ebay for 100$

Regarding kapan centre,if you are starting and wanna get started ,then its good,as you have access to the videos [but you can view them only there].If you can study on your own you dont need the kaplan centre why waste 699$,all you need is the study material,videos etc which can be easily got in ebay for 100$
