There's a Robot????

All I got was an email with my answers and the correct ones O.o
Oh okay! I'll just wait around a bit I suppose.

Yeah, there was a 'tutor', which was pretty much a bot that asked questions, gave answers, and helped you work out the answer if you didn't provide what they were looking for. I've heard that other people get to do written MCQs though.
 
Yea they want heart and venous valves (did this a while ago now xD)- https://puu.sh/Q1oL

I think different people got different tests? Either that or I was blind when I was doing the text >.>
 
It was pretty neat, I tried it a while ago. I think they changed the valves answer as before the model answers just semilunar valves and the atrial valves. Only thing I got "wrong".
 
How are you guys approaching learning different arteries/veins names and their branches etc? Do you think we'll have to know this in precise detail for the terms test?

Yep, you'll have to know all the names you were asked to learn. Besides, it's really basic stuff you'll have to know really well eventually if you end up in one of the professional courses, so may as well start now.
 
For the question where the calculation of VC was asked for, we were given a RV of 2 L, yet the ERV went down to 1 L. Did you guys see the same thing, or did I do something wrong?

You don't need to use the RV to work out the VC. But I did notice that discrepency

Also, does the great saphenous drain into the femoral or external iliac? Eeek!
 
yeah got 5 for the vital capacity question too...fml what was that question about draining into the left part of the heart or something? question 23 or something? you guys remember what you put down?

If you're referring to the question about the lymphatics + left arm draining into ____, I put down left subclavian vein.

Unless you're referring to the postolateral heart, I put down circumflex coronary artery.
 
yup left arm was left subclavian, was referring to that second part, got so confused think i put down a branch of a coronary artery if that was an option? sigh
 
the textbook has the great saphenous draining into the external iliac? (p646)

[box="Med2 Level Details"]The femoral vein becomes the external iliac vein after it passes under the inguinal ligament, but the great saphenous vein drains into it within the femoral triangle, which is inferior to the inguinal ligament, so it's still called femoral vein at that point.[/box]
 
Refer to point 1. (This is the 2010 terms test 1 report)

Well, at least they're kind enough to give you a taste of awesome med-ness before they sieve you out at the end of the year, even though technically we haven't been granted "official clearance" to access "Med2 (and/or above) Level Details" (yet)..
