4th Yr: Community Medicine Viva

4th Yr: Community Medicine Viva



Community medicine viva this year was taken by Dr. saira...Its starts at 9:00 am... the batch is divided into two halves of 15... one of the halves goes for spotting and the other one for viva with external.
OSpe had alot of questions from immunology... Vaccines comprised atleast 40 percent of our spotting ques... do modules from ur log books for ospe ... Ospe can include baisically anything form the syllabus.. a few questions were from research as well...

Viva with external this year was a breeze... he was asking general questions...
Then a viva with dr. saira and the entire batch is done by maximum 12.
U are required to bring in ur research in printed form as well as on a cd along with the log books.


VIVA QUESTIONS Compiled by Class of 2012



 Dr. Maaz: highly unpredictable. Its a LOT about nerves and luck with him. ORS preparation; BCG vaccine- how is it prepared (as in, manufactured!) but changed that question to how does BCG produce immunization; greenhouse gases and effect- does not accept the naveed alam theory or any other theory for that matter! Nothing about research. Be prepared for verbal lashing if he is in a foul mood since the morning.

External: go thru the basics, the first two chapters. Rabies vaccine schedule. Balanced diet and the factors governing it. Vector for spred of plague. Some definitions from demography.

define epidemiology,safe water, E.coli in water indicate what?,eugenesis,difference b/w odds ratio and CHI-square test, culex transmits which diseases.
