Sounds good, hopefully skyglow will reply soon

We can meet w/out him if need be
 
Hummm

Should we just make it another day? Tbh it'd be really good if we had skyglow with us - he knows his s**t when it comes to epi =)

Epi lecture is at 9am and 3pm 2moro I think, so Pete would need to go to 9am cause of his lab. So 2moro seems hgihly inconvenient. Should we make it thursday? I can book a room, just need to know a time - i'll be free whenever (apart from 1pm on thursday *cough* Maori *cough*)
 
friday is good. My reults werent quite as good as i wanted but still havnt put me out of the running so fingers crossed for a good umat result lol wbu?
 
Friday 11-1 sounds good
I'm sure you're just being modest :P
I already posted my results - PHSI 87 A, HUBS 85 A, CHEM 84 A-, CELS 82 A-. I wasn't happy with them, but I'm hoping for a straight A+ this semester (4A+) and a decent UMAT (anything above 85th percentile I would be stoked with). Heal isn't looking particularly great atm though *sigh*

Btw, if we were to have a meeting this friday, could we go over HUBS instead of epi? Term's test this sat *gulp*
 
Omg, I woke up at 2pm...No kidding

I'm so sorry xD haha

Ok we have to meet up before epi term's test!!
 
This just in: Epi term's test is 100% MCQ

Good luck for HUBS test 2moro! (or today...it's 1.30am)
 
How did everyone go?

Some of my answers:
Artery under armpit - axillary
2 imp haemodynamic factors - pressure and resistance
Respiratory membrane - two epithelial and two fused basement membranes
Incorrect statement regarding surfactant - not created in myocardium (lol)
Alveolar ventilation - 7L/min
Resting cardiac output 5L/min (last question)
Cardiac cycle spends less time in systole than diastole
Venous return affects performance of the heart (wasn't 100% sure on this one)
Cerebral circulation in series with Pulmonary cirulation
Daltons law - sum of pressures...exerted independently...
Something about blood vessels (can't remember question, but I put all of the above)
Thinnest layer of vein - media (but i think its actually intima)
Air that reaches alveoli is clean, warm, moist
When breathing in, alvolar pressure lower than atmospheric
During inspiration external intercostals and diaphragm are the main muscles
Residual volume - 1L
Low pH shifts curve to RHS (Bohr effect)

That's all I can remember..
