Exam-Ready Takeaways
▪Metabolism (Ch. 8) carries 20 of 75 marks — master glycolysis, TCA cycle,
β-oxidation and the urea cycle first.
▪Proteins, Lipids, Carbohydrates, Enzymes and Minerals each hold 5 marks
— solid, evenly-weighted scoring chapters.
▪Vitamins, Organ Function Tests and Pathology of Blood & Urine each carry 6
marks — high-yield for their length.
▪Introduction chapters (Ch. 1 and Ch. 11) are short but still examinable —
don't skip the fundamentals.
Verify the exact marks distribution against your university's official question-paper pattern before final exam prep.
