This sheet is a problem-solving accelerator for the atomic structure chapter of the chemistry module (1st year Medicine and Dental Medicine). In a compact format, it provides the essential formulas, calculation reflexes, mnemonic tips, and linguistic pitfalls to avoid for spectral series, the Bohr model, hydrogen-like ions, and Slater's rules. Designed for last-minute revision the night before the exam, it emphasises method over theory, with key reference values to memorise in order to save time on the day of the test.

Keywords: Atomic structure, Bohr model, Hydrogen-like ions, Spectral series, Slater's rule, Effective principal quantum number.
