Assessment by multiple choice questions is now an established feature in all competitive tests. The current collection of well phrased, lucid questions will test the students’ knowledge not only on the “must know” areas, but over a wide field. We have tried to cover most of the concepts and knowledge frequently asked in Physiology examinations.
The book is divided into sections, each section containing questions related to one of the main physiological systems of the body. Each MCQ has four options with a single correct answer. The answers are given at the end of the system. The detailed explanations given in the book are from the recognized textbooks of Physiology; with their reference clearly mentioned. We hope that, with the given explanations of each question, the book will provide a compact revision guide, encouraging understanding of the students. The book will be useful for medical, nursing, dental, physiotherapy, and other health care students. We thank our colleagues and friends for giving valuable comments and suggestions.
