Dr Amarja Sachin Nagre


Excel !

• Exams are nearing and its time to put up the show !• This Powerpoint will help u build your confidence,study

methodically and perform in exams….• All in all, the divine idea is you should EXCEL in your exams.• What you have done during your tenure comes down to

answering in half an hour…therefore it is very important that you are precise and give your best …..• Here I am to help you out….


Am talking !

• This powerpoint is formed as if I am talking to you, it doesn’t follow the rules of powerpoint presentation.

• You are not left with any excuse after going through this powerpoint ….


Final cricket match !Immense stress on players !They are not only skillful, talented but they know how to execute the impossible in immense stressHow to negate negativity ?How to win in any damn situation ?But then we are also trained in our fields, we are showing exemplory excellence since our medical qualifying exams !We should execute as well ….


Ask, Pray, Beg !• Get things (topics) explained by different people on same

subjects

Advantages of this are -• Addition of extra points• Way of expression may be different and more impressive• It is a good revision for you• Think - If somebody can know it so well, so can I …..


Repeated Reading !

• Reading the subject for first time feels hopeless, second time always works,third attempt makes understand better.• Time of the day whichever suits you…make the most of it … when your power study can happen….


FRT ? MRT ?How to manage repeated reading ?It is possible with FRT and MRT.FRT = Frequent Revision Technique : how frequently you read one topic.Less gap in between 2 readings, more it stays in your memory.For example – you read mitral stenosis twice in one week.MRT = Multiple Revision Technique : this is total number of times you have read one particular topic.For example – you read mitral stenosis total 5 times till now.

When you read in this manner, re reading becomes absolutely possible.


Methodical study •We share same lectures…read same text books,journals, then why does someone score more and somebody less ?

Answer is: Study methodically –• Topics which are important should be studied first• Your basics have to be strong• Study separately for theory and for viva• Study for viva or practicals from initial days


Study everything !

• You must study everything in the syllabus• You cannot leave out anything• There should not be a single question that you are unable to answer.


Customize your method

• Notes on walls, wall paper, screen saver, washroom, car, mirror….• Diary/ flash cards • Rewrite the important notes • Always keep your morale high.. feel good about

yourself that you stand a better position…


Re-read even if you know it !

Sachin Tendulkar example : After playing so many games and scoring huge runs, he also must be thinking or planning his game against the side he has to play tomorrow.Everytime you read you discover some new points or just strengthen your previous knowledge ….thus, your confidence increases manifold !


Google it !

• Any topic before reading the textbook, Google it first … read few articles, even reading abstracts shall suffice…• You must be seeing Watsapp, Facebook,Instagram,Twitter etc daily add one more to it• Add: Google cardiac anaesthesia or anaesthesia or your subject….you will gather huge amount of information if you do this daily !


Answer all questions in exam.

• On seeing question paper in examination hall you are not supposed to get thrilled or feel depressed because if you are answering say 40 questions in total 4 papers you already know your question paper as those 40 questions are from the question bank of 400 questions which you are seeing from last 6 months.• Yes may be 2 to 3 questions are different or new

but then they should not bother you if you answer other questions quite well.But answering them is also mandatory, you cannot leave any question unanswered unless there is negative marking.


Stay motivated

• Avoid company that demotivates you• Always think positive • Visualise that you have cleared exams with flying colours • Perform well and create a lasting impression!• People will remember you for the excellent show that you put up.


Body Language

•Have you ever seen a leopard run for its prey ?•Have a close watch once again on you tube video•What you see ?• Leopard has a body language, gaze fixed on the prey and the speed- all winning types

You need to study and approach exams in the same way.


Attitude !

•Why not aim for the highest ?Girls who participate in Miss India or Miss World Pageant - Do they aim to win the Runner up title ?Most of the students want to just pass and finish off the exams, so those who want to top are actually in a win win situation as they have very less competition to score the highest.


Recapitulate

• Your results are directly proportional to your efforts• Re reading is the key• Always be confident and in a decent state of mind while approaching exams.


A little extra !

•Push a little more….just a little …and believe me it will be enough• It will do only good….


Keep the faith ….

Faith is that u have already passed the exams it is only the process of examination that you have to undergo….


Thank You
