The Microscope

Please Note: This article is intended for 1^st and 2^nd year medical students and their parents and guardians. Others may please skip this post.

Even though it was relatively expensive at that time, some students in AIIMS, New Delhi, had bought their own personal microscope to help in their studies.

For 1^st and 2^nd MBBS students, having micro-anatomy and pathology as subjects should seriously consider getting a microscope to aid in their studies. Both these subjects require the study of microscopic slides. If you have your own microscope, you can study the slides easily in your home and hostel if you had missed the classes or revise the slides before the exams. You can take the help of your colleagues or seniors. 

The next question is how to get a microscope? You can buy it or borrow it from your seniors or colleagues. You can get together with a few of your friends and buy the microscope collectively, each contributing some money. 

Once you have cleared your 2^nd year and passed your pathology exams, then you can consider gifting it your juniors in 1^st year or sell it, recovering some of your buying cost.

An example of collectively buying resource for study purpose and precaution to take is given in:
