Yeh sabse bada aur scoring section hai. Focus on:

  • Fluid & electrolytes, transfusion reactions

Top Books & Resources (Recommended)

Books are tools — use them for concept clarity, not rote. Best combination:

  • Arihant Nursing Competitive — quick revision
  • Medical-Surgical Nursing (Lewis) — summary notes
  • Community Health (Park) — short notes
  • Previous year question banks & mock test series

12-Week Study Plan (Practical & Doable)

Yeh plan aise banaya gaya hai ki working students bhi follow kar saken.

Week 1–3: Foundation + Basics

  • Fundamentals, patient care, infection control
  • Daily 1–2 hours and 1 weekend mock

Week 4–6: MSN Deep-dive

  • Cardio + Respiratory + Neuro — make flowcharts
  • Practice clinical scenarios

Week 7–8: OBG + Pediatrics

  • Partograph practice, antenatal complications
  • Pediatric immunization schedule revision

Week 9: Community + Mental Health

  • NHM programs, epidemiology basics, community case studies

Week 10–11: Pharmacology & Rapid Revision

  • Drug tables, emergency drug doses, side-effects

Week 12: Mock Tests & Final Polishing

  • 3–4 full-length mocks with analysis
  • Revise error notebook & high-yield points

Mock Tests & Time Management

Practice full-length mocks under timed conditions. Aim for 60–70% accuracy first, then improve accuracy. Negative marking makes accuracy more important than attempt count.

Exam Day Checklist & Strategy

  • Admit card, Photo ID
  • Carry a watch to manage time
  • Start with high-confidence sections (nursing subjects you know)
  • Mark tougher questions and return — avoid wasting time
  • Don’t guess blindly because of negative marking

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Rote memorization without understanding
  • Skipping mocks — mocks build speed & exam temperament
  • Ignoring recent guidelines (immunization schedule, NRP updates)
