Keeping in mind the scanty time left for prep, which topics would you suggest to be covered thoroughly and rest cursorily?

The book is okay, in fact I prepared from that book alone but that was because I could not find Starke's book in the market at that time.
Back in the preparation days I made a list of topic that had appeared in the past 10 year papers. I am posting that list here, I hope it helps you to decide on important topics as I don't believe in selective study much.
