Pathophysiology MCQs – ULTIMATE, ALL STAR AND ELITE
Hi everyone
I made this document for pathophysiology, it contains all new McQs, that I’ve
received and I’ve answered the ones that needed answering. In total it has
around 1000 new McQs from colloquiums and exams.
The ones I wasn’t more then 90% sure about, I’ve said check after my
answer.
It was really hard to make. Took so long.
I can’t even explain how hard it was to make this.
Hopefully everyone passes.
Pages 1-120 contains all new McQs.
Pages 121-247 contains all old McQs from the website, that are all answered
just in case they come up.
If anyone wants me to separate new from old McQs and make separate PDFs
then let me know. Good luck for the exam everyone.
