Day 2: Medical Test

Today was the second day of my medic test we reported at 7:30 am
empty stomach and then our Chest
measurement and Height and Weight
measurements were taken. There is a height-
weight-age chart for the candidates and its is
strongly advised to get your tummy measure up
to the numbers, Though the authorities give a
lot of relaxation on these count. After this we
were send to the pathology lab for Blood and
Urine Tests. Next on card was the Ultrasound
test in which abdomen, liver etc were checked
if these parts were normal and to check there
are no abnormal things like kidney stones and
abnormal size of internal organs. Next we had
Radiology in which around 5-6 X-Rays were
taken of chest, Spine, Skull etc. Some of the
people who had a large angle in the bones of
the elbow had elbow X-ray done to determine
that angle.After this we quickly had a couple of
test one after another like ECG, Anthropological
measurement(sitting height, leg length, thigh
length and ENT.
For Ear they check for ear wax after that they
apply a varying pressure to the ear and the
machine generate a plot, it seemed like this
test checks how the ear drum behaves in
changing pressure. Then the Audio-metric test
was done in which there is a headphone
through which a few very faint beeps of
different frequencies are emitted first in the left
ear then in the right, on hearing each beep you
have to press the button.The rest of the test of
nose is basically one in which the doctor
inserts a thong in your nose to check for DNS.
The last thing of the day was a basic test of
the eyes in which we were to read a chart
about 6mtrs away, a book of color blindness.
After this we wore a setup with possibly a
polarized lens and a light source was shined
which caused a vertical line and a dot to
appear. All things went well till now.
