Every success story has its own struggles, sacrifices, and turning points. This is true for Dr. Anupma, who recently cleared her DNB Radio Diagnosis Final Theory Exam with an impressive score of 254.
Dr. Zainab Vora sat down with her to know how she managed her preparation alongside a hectic residency and why Conceptual Radiology became her lifeline during this journey.
One Source of Preparation: Conceptual Radiology
When asked about her feelings after the result, Dr. Anupma said:
“I honestly didn’t expect to score this well. My residency was extremely hectic with 36-hour and 12-hour shifts. I barely had time to open books. But what gave me confidence was Conceptual Radiology. I would literally watch videos while brushing my teeth or during a 30-minute break. It was my single source of preparation—the books, the videos, the 10-year solutions—everything.”
Her words reflect the reality of most residents: time is always short, but the right guidance can make all the difference.
Her Journey and Challenges
Dr. Anupma did her MBBS from PGIMS Rohtak and is currently pursuing DNB Radio Diagnosis at Government Medical College, Faridpur, Punjab.
With limited faculty support in radiology, her residency was even more demanding. At one point, she and her co-PG even thought of postponing the exam.
- But instead of giving up, she decided to trust one source—Conceptual Radiology.
How She Prepared?
Her strategy was simple but consistent:
- Started watching Conceptual Radiology videos 6 months before exams.
- In the last one month, she revised everything at 1.5x speed.
- Balanced her time between videos and the past 7–10 years of solved questions.
- Avoided multiple references—focused only on CR content.
From Where She Got to Know About Conceptual Radiology?
“One of her seniors told her – Conceptual Radiology is enough, just believe in it. That’s what she did, and here she is with such a good score, 254”
Even after tiring shifts, videos kept her engaged and motivated. Instead of forcing herself through thick books, she found CR’s content smooth, concise, and exam-oriented.
Dr. Anupma’s Advice For Future Aspirants:
Here are some important tips for future aspirants who are planning to give the DNB theory exam
- Don’t get lost in multiple sources—stick to one reliable platform.
- Past year papers are gold; questions often repeat.
- Use videos to study during residency when reading feels impossible.
- Focused preparation will always beat scattered efforts.
What’s Next?
Post her practicals, Dr. Anupma will be proceeding with a senior residency and pursuing further opportunities in radiology.
She summarises her preparation journey so beautifully:
“Without Conceptual Radiology, I wouldn’t have had the confidence to even sit for the exam. The notes, videos, and solved papers were more than enough.”
