NMC Competencies for Community Medicine roughly matched with chapters from K.Park (As much as I could.)
Topics are without any definite borders so expect some overlap between chapters and competencies.
Ultimately, weather for University exams or NEET PG, you must study the whole book after all so these won’t matter anymore anyways.
Best Viewed on tablets and laptops. On mobile phones, rotate your device to landscape orientation.
