Chapter 13:
- CVA-011 – CVA-017
- Endocardium, Myocardium & Epicardium (Cover all these layers properly…the most important in this regard is the Myocardium as it contains the arrangement of muscle fibers in the atria and ventricles)
- Complete topic of cardiac skeleton…The paragraph under the heading of impulse generating and conducting system of the heart is especially imp because it contains the location of SA node AV node etc…moreover it also contains some of the distinguishing features of the cardiac muscle cells found in SA node…also Cover Purkinje Fibres
- You people have already covered cardiac muscle in block 2…revise the topic from the chp of muscles.

- Vein Types must do their Difference
- Thoroughly cover the topic of lymph vascular system…the paragraph of lymph capillaries contains the differences of lymphatic capillaries from the blood capillaries so do it properly….otherwise the entire topic is supposed to be covered
HIGH YIELD POINT:
- For this chapter the most imp thing is the differences between the types of different blood vessels and their examples such as the differences between the types of arteries
- You can cover these either in tabulated form from any short book or from histo manual…but you should be crystal clear about these differences as these will most probably constitute an imp portion of the MCQs
