1A 28-year-old man has weakness in initiating abduction of the arm after a fall on the lateral shoulder. Sensation over the regimental badge area is normal. Which muscle is most likely injured?
A.Supraspinatus
B.Deltoid
C.Infraspinatus
D.Teres major
Explanation: Supraspinatus initiates the first 15 degrees of arm abduction and is supplied by the suprascapular nerve, so isolated difficulty starting abduction points to this muscle. Deltoid continues abduction from about 15 to 90 degrees and axillary nerve injury would often reduce sensation over the regimental badge area. Infraspinatus mainly laterally rotates the arm, while teres major medially rotates and adducts it.
2During appendicectomy, the surgeon follows the taeniae coli on the caecum to locate the base of the appendix. From which surface of the caecum does the appendix usually arise?
A.Anterolateral surface
B.Superior surface near the ileocaecal valve
C.Posteromedial surface
D.Inferior surface opposite the ileal opening
Explanation: The vermiform appendix typically arises from the posteromedial wall of the caecum, about 2 cm below the ileocaecal junction, where the taeniae coli converge. The other listed surfaces are not the usual site of origin and would make the taeniae coli guide anatomically unreliable.
3A patient with a neck stab wound develops difficulty elevating the shoulder and turning the face to the opposite side. Which nerve has most likely been damaged?
A.Hypoglossal nerve
B.Spinal accessory nerve
C.Vagus nerve
D.Phrenic nerve
Explanation: The spinal accessory nerve supplies sternocleidomastoid and trapezius, so injury causes weakness in turning the face to the opposite side and elevating the shoulder. Hypoglossal injury affects tongue movement, vagus injury commonly affects voice and swallowing, and phrenic nerve injury affects diaphragmatic function.
4A woman has numbness over the lateral three and a half fingers and wasting of the thenar eminence. Which carpal tunnel structure is responsible for the motor weakness?
A.Deep branch of the ulnar nerve
B.Superficial radial nerve
C.Anterior interosseous nerve
D.Recurrent branch of the median nerve
Explanation: Thenar wasting in carpal tunnel syndrome is due to compression of the median nerve fibers that supply the thenar muscles through the recurrent branch. The deep ulnar nerve supplies most interossei and the adductor pollicis, the superficial radial nerve is sensory, and the anterior interosseous nerve supplies deep forearm flexors rather than thenar muscles.
5A pregnant woman undergoes pudendal nerve block for pain relief during delivery. The needle is directed toward which palpable bony landmark?
A.Pubic tubercle
B.Anterior superior iliac spine
C.Sacral promontory
D.Ischial spine
Explanation: The pudendal nerve crosses near the ischial spine as it passes around the sacrospinous ligament, making the ischial spine the key landmark for pudendal nerve block. The pubic tubercle, anterior superior iliac spine, and sacral promontory are important pelvic landmarks but are not used to target this nerve block.
6A healthy adult begins moderate exercise. Which cardiovascular change is expected during the first few minutes?
A.Decreased pulse pressure due to reduced stroke volume
B.Increased systolic blood pressure with little change or slight fall in diastolic pressure
C.Marked rise in diastolic pressure due to systemic vasoconstriction
D.Reduced venous return due to skeletal muscle pooling
Explanation: Moderate dynamic exercise increases cardiac output and systolic pressure, while arteriolar vasodilation in active muscle keeps diastolic pressure unchanged or slightly lower. Stroke volume usually increases, widening pulse pressure. Diastolic pressure does not usually rise markedly in normal dynamic exercise, and the skeletal muscle pump increases rather than reduces venous return.
7A patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease has reduced expiratory flow during forced expiration. Which physiological factor most directly limits airflow in this setting?
A.Increased pulmonary capillary hydrostatic pressure
B.Increased diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide
C.Dynamic compression of small airways
D.Reduced anatomical dead space
Explanation: During forced expiration, pleural pressure becomes positive and can compress small airways, especially when elastic recoil is reduced in COPD, causing flow limitation. Pulmonary capillary hydrostatic pressure relates more to oedema, diffusion capacity is often reduced rather than increased in emphysema, and anatomical dead space is not the main cause of forced expiratory airflow limitation.
8After severe diarrhoea, a patient has low extracellular fluid volume. Which renal response helps restore circulating volume?
A.Increased renin secretion from juxtaglomerular cells
B.Decreased aldosterone secretion
C.Suppression of angiotensin II formation
D.Increased sodium excretion by the distal nephron
Explanation: Volume depletion reduces renal perfusion and increases sympathetic input, stimulating juxtaglomerular renin release. Renin leads to angiotensin II and aldosterone formation, promoting sodium and water retention. The other options would worsen sodium and water loss rather than restore circulating volume.
9A 19-year-old woman has fatigue, weight gain, and cold intolerance. Her serum TSH is high and free T4 is low. Which feedback relationship explains the high TSH?
A.Loss of negative feedback by thyroid hormones on the anterior pituitary and hypothalamus
B.Direct stimulation of TSH release by low plasma glucose
C.Inhibition of thyrotropin-releasing hormone by low free T4
D.Autonomous suppression of pituitary thyrotrophs by iodine deficiency
Explanation: Low circulating T4 and T3 reduce negative feedback on the hypothalamus and anterior pituitary, so TRH and TSH rise in primary hypothyroidism. Low glucose is not the main regulator of TSH. Low free T4 does not inhibit TRH, and iodine deficiency tends to increase TSH rather than autonomously suppress thyrotrophs.
10A student pricks a finger and withdraws the hand before consciously feeling pain. Which pathway mediates the rapid withdrawal?
A.Direct corticospinal tract activation
B.Dorsal column-medial lemniscus pathway
C.Polysynaptic spinal reflex arc
D.Vestibulospinal reflex pathway
Explanation: Withdrawal from a painful stimulus is mediated by a polysynaptic spinal reflex involving nociceptive afferents, interneurons, and motor neurons before conscious cortical perception. The corticospinal tract controls voluntary movement, the dorsal column pathway carries fine touch and proprioception, and vestibulospinal pathways help posture and balance.

BMDC RQE Study Tips from Top Performers

1Use the official MBBS subject count as a time-allocation guide; Medicine and Allied plus Surgery and Allied account for 36 of the 100 official questions.
2Because the official format is four-stem True/False with negative marking, practise recognizing partially true statements rather than only memorizing a single best answer.
3Prioritize common Bangladesh clinical problems such as tuberculosis, dengue, enteric fever, diarrhoeal illness, obstetric emergencies, childhood pneumonia, malnutrition, diabetes, hypertension, trauma, and surgical infection.
4Review basic sciences through clinical application: anatomy in procedures and injuries, physiology in shock and acid-base problems, pharmacology in safe prescribing, and pathology/microbiology in diagnosis.
5Check the active BMDC notice before applying because dates, venue, payment instructions, and dental-specific arrangements can change by sitting.
