There was a post like this last year, but I can't find it...
Anyways, for whatever reason, these things just won't stick in my head; so in honour of this stress-inducing test, a little list. (Yeah, yeah...of course these things will be on the exam, but that doesn't mean I have to like it!)
- enzyme pathways and deficiencies
- jobs of specific cytokines or interleukins
- HLA disease associations
- osteoporosis vs. osteopetrosis vs. osteomalacia vs. Pagets
- specific courses of arteries and nerves (i.e. which muscles they run between)
- triangles of the neck and the structures they contain
- epidemiology / specific percent prevelence of a diseases
- diseases of the skin
- "Mr. Smith has condition X, Y, and Z and is suffering from [insert random infection here]. Which of the drugs below is the first choice for therapy?" -- and all the answer choices belong to the same class of antibiotic...
There's many more, but these are just some that get to me the most because I keep missing practice questions about them.
Please add to the list, and good luck knocking them off before test day!
