5Preface
This book is a compilation of points picked up from examiners during various surgical grand rounds, presentations and meetings. The purpose of this book is to help the exam going surgical postgraduate to brush up on his revision, the day before the exam. This cannot be used as a substitute to textbook reading.
This book also contains tips on good performance in theory, clinical and viva voce examinations, so that the candidate who follows these tips has that crucial edge over the others.
It is my sincere hope that the exam going candidates find this book a priceless possession for their pre-exam revision.
Your comments and suggestions for improvement are welcome. Kindly address them to kan_sundar@yahoo.co.in.
