Preface
The Department of Аnatomy, Histology and Embryology has
recently introduced the MCQs exam for student knowledge evaluation.
This manual is the result of such an effort for anatomy teaching
of medical students. This method of evaluation has become essential
for every student to become familiar with the concept and
formats of multiple choice questions.
The questions in the book cover all aspects of the locomotory
and CNS system. The degree of difficulty has been graded to extend
from those requiring the simplest factual knowledge to good
understanding. The set of MCQs presented in the manual covers the
commonly used formats. The questions on anatomy of locomotory
system are presented in three chapters - osteology, arthrology and
myology with relevant blood and nerve supply. The part of nervous
system and skull is organized systematically including ten chapters.
The relevant answers to the questions make easy reading. These
should be read in conjunction with relevant anatomy texts. One
of the best ways to prepare well for an MCQ exam is to make up
MCQs whilst reading a text. It is hoped that this will be stimulating
to the students and help with better understanding in acquiring the
general skills of performing and reporting anatomy examinations.
It is hoped that this book will provide students with a focused
approach to learning MCQs and prepare well for the modules of
anatomy of locomotory system and CNS.
Although our efforts to ensure accuracy and clarity in the wording
of questions any suggestions for improvement will be welcome.
We expect considerate and constructive feed-back from the students,
in order this manual to go beyond its pure bibliographical value.
We wish you success!
