No matter how much I study for this exam I feel like I'm going to screw up anyway. :( I'm definitely going to get confused when it comes to those extended matching response type questions. I don't understand why but when I see all those answers on the page my brain goes all asdnasndaijnsdjnasikjcnjrbf... I would much rather have short answer questions  :-[

Anyway Good luck with the exam tomorrow guys!! And El good luck with Genes and genomes too- smash both of them ;)

You'll do great pink0829, if you feel a bit nervous just shake them out a little bit (lol I did that in one of my exams) but it worked. Remember charles mentioned that these questions are decided to test your thinking and if you can't process a question the first time then that's fine, just read it again until you understand what it is saying. Maybe you might want to try leaving the extended matching questions last in that case, always good to get the easiest stuff done first. And thanks so much! :) All the best to you guys too.

How did we do? I didn't like the respiration one with the hose, I was confused was it supposed to resemble an obstructive lung disease? If so then it should have been written saying that.

I liked that exam quite a lot!

I hated the question with the hose too...

I loved all the questions on muscles, and all the questions on the kidneys.

I was a tad disappointed that there was nothing on the baroreceptor reflex!

Well that was a bit hard. I kinda expected it would be because last sem was apparently really easy.

Yeah, what was with that pool question?!? Some of the kidney questions were  a bit hard for me to figure out but the rest wasn't too bad.

The muscle, digestive system, reproduction and nerve questions were really good and the respiration multiple choice questions were nice to me :)

Did you guys treated the decrease in blood volume as an increase in blood pressure? Even though the osmolarity stayed the same..
I hope that was right, because it threw me off a bit!

I thought that if blood volume drops -> pressure drops.. but I may be wrong. Kidney section was not my favourite part of phys.

Considering I was too busy stressing over biochem the day before the physiology exam I am probably the idiot who brought down the average xD

Hello beautiful, smart, funny, fascinating, classy and most importantly, generous and kind PHYS20008 students. Do any of you still have your lecture notes or any content related to PHYS20008, such as recommended textbook pages/tutorial PDFs/lectures from LMS? I was hoping to study Human Physiology over the holidays because I'm pulling more shifts next year at work and want to be able to juggle the courseload.

If anyone has material from cognitive psychology/research-based physiology/principles of human structure/biological psychology/compariative nutrition and digestion as well, you would make my life.
