Viva is pure luck however for BIC know the digestion and absorption of all the classes of food,The examiner may ask you what you ate that morning if you say Rice he might ask you to talk about the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates, if you use eyeglasses and you don’t know the mechanism of visual acquity for Physio don’t bother wearing your glasses to the viva room or read about visual acquity before entering, for anatomy you should know bones Atleast,take your atlas you mustn’t read the section of osteology in your last, just use your atlas to know the parts and try to learn the muscles attaching to it, viva is very short, before you talk about 3 or 4 land marks they may leave bone and ask you another then you are done!

In general viva is luck during my first MB(Anatomy Physio and biochemistry )I read throughout the eve of viva I went there and they didn’t ask me anything I read it was based on my residual knowledge I used in answering the questions they asked

In my second mb (Pharm and path) for path the man just asked me if “I would be a good doctor” I said yes he asked me what good doctors do to their patients, that was my viva on HAEMATOLOGY, in morbid MCB and Chen path it was just basic questions they asked however some other persons who entered had harder questions, viva is just luck

In my Oral biology viva same thing I spent my whole night reading what they asked me was not what I read!!

Pray your luck shines

I'm known around my friends to have a horrible luck in the examination hall with lecturers. So this doesn't give me hope but going through some people's via experiences it doesn't seem that bad, Hopefully.

Another enquiry I'd like to make from the people is how you folks go about answering your theory questions?

Especially in anatomy with hos aggressive their marking scheme is.

In my opinion, MB examination is more of residual knowledge than what you read the night before but work hard and work smart.

Concerning viva, it depends on the examiner and his mood while viving you.

I’ve seen people whose viva was more of a discussion than direct question.

During Biochemistry viva, a lady was asked to talk on what she thinks John 3:16 is all about, meanwhile, the same man choke me with liver function tests and Lesch-Nyhan syndrome 😂

I suggest you talk to your seniors, their opinions and insights would come handy believe me

I wish you great success Doc. Viva isn't a child's play. It's a matter of luck or grace as you'll call it. For anatomy, I was asked the histology of vajay grin

For biochem, I was asked reactive oxygen species and for Physiology I was asked post prandial somnolence.

Incase you've not seen this already, I talked about my own experience and the questions I was asked.

Discussing answers to my general and distinction viva questions

For some reason, I can't upload the whole of my reply at a time. I have to make it gradual.
Everyone knows reading for an exam is no child's play at all, most especially when you've got to do it all by yourself and for the UTME, it can be a "taxing task" with no prim rose path. Let me cut to the chase. Before I wrote my UTME and o'level exams, it had never occured to me that I could have such creditable scores as I had. Frankly, however, these weren't achieved by any special ability I have but through some workable philosophies of studying and I'll share some with you.
(1)PLAN, PREPARE AND SET TARGETS
Make preparations for books. If you are writing the next year's UTME, you may consider "essential" or "newschool" science textbooks- they are somewhat comprehensive and easy to understand and I used them. You might as well look out for other textbooks whose authors are the human faces of science
. Make sure your preparations are reasonably timely enough. Don't wait until it's a couple of weeks or days to the exam before you start preparing.

(2)WORK HARD BUT RELAX FOR EASY POWER
It's a good thing to burn the midnight candle
but you know, you can't burn the candle at both ends. Don't "overpress" as it might cause an untimely depletion of your energy. Practically, you can read 4 hrs a day. 2hrs during the day and 2hrs at night. The cumulative result is unimaginable only if it's done rightly.

(3)TRACK YOUR PROGRESS
AND WORK ON IT
This is very much important. You should track your progress not from the viewpoint of the quantity of books you've read but in terms of how much your abilities have improved.
**Exploit UTME-simulating softwares like myschool etc. It's exactly like repeating the exam countless times before the actual exam. The results paints a picture
of what to expect.
past questions and answers are good alternatives. They give a glimpse of what to expect.

(4)PRIORITISE READING OVER OTHER ACTIVITIES PARTICULARLY THE UNPROFITABLE ONES

(5)INCORPORATE READING INTO OTHER ACTIVITIES
Are your days usually hectic and full of activities?
Including reading into a number of these activities is a good option. You can read while relaxing in bed, on the bus, in a taxi or even in the toilet but don't read while bathing in order that you don't destroy your books.

(6)EXPECT THE BEST AND GET IT
There's power in positive thinking. Have an attitude of opstimism. Believe in yourself and have faith in the abilities you've got through hard work.

(7)ULTIMATELY, TRY PRAYER POWER
I don't have to belabour this point. Pray and believe in whatever you will.

I wish I could continue but I'm afraid I can't.

Although these tips may be seemingly conventional, believe me, the results are incredible. You will, in time, discover this if they are applied correctly.
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE READING THIS, ESPECIALLY OUR ESTEEMED MEDICS AND ASPIRANTS
