How did everyone go?
« on: November 07, 2012, 05:35:33 pm »
For the Health and Human Development students that just completed their exam, what did you think of it?

Was it easier or harder than previous years? I thought it was about the same difficulty as last years if not easier.

What about you?

No not at all, no nutrient question was on there which took me by surprise haha, all the question were structured well and pretty much straight-forward :). But I didn't do well but I don't care :)

I found the Australian Guide to Healthy Eating and the 4-mark question relating to the explanation of the oils/fats challenging too, that was about it. Rest was pretty straight forward

yearningforsimplicity: there wasnt really any unexpected questions, although i did get a little stumped by the question asking for two healthy fats and explain why they are healthy. I said monounsaturated and polyunsaturated, but struggled to explain the difference between them lol... thanks for you're help this year btw! i think the few times i asked questions on the fourm it was you who answered so thankyou :)

Haha dw, there's always one or two Q's that takes everyone by surprise haha aka 2011's enable,mediate,advocate ottawa charter Q :P I'm sure you answered much better than you think! (and hopefully much better than the rest of the state :) :P )

Awww no worries splash.of.colour! :) :) You should get the marks for naming them and probably some for explaining too - I don't think VCAA are that evil to hand out zeros like that :P If you've written something, you will get a mark in most cases! :)
