Examination:
First Professional MBBS Examination (Pre-Clinics)
First Professional examination is conducted after first two semesters. It comprises three basic subjects, viz. Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry. Anatomy, where one must understand the physical structure and function of the human body, Physiology, where one will learn how all the body parts work in harmony; and Biochemistry, which allows one to grasp the molecular structure and function of the system.
Second Professional MBBS Examination (Para-Clinics)
Second professional examination is conducted at the end of the 4th semester. This tenure provides the opportunity to learn the Para-clinical subjects, such as Microbiology, where one learns about various micro-organisms that cause human diseases; Pathology, which teaches the cause, underlying mechanism, and result of every type of disease; and Pharmacology, in which one learns about the details of drugs and their uses. The departments trained the student according to new medical education curriculum focusing on observable ability in real-life situations.
