How did everyone justify picking their low mortality strata country?
I just used U5MR but there was no adult mortality rates
I'm thinking 1 mark for picking the right country and 1 for justification using data on U5MR?

Hmm, was that the very last question with the table?

Yep! :)

I thought it was a 4 mark question. Had all these mortality rates and %'s in it. I chose the one that seemed the lowest to me (Chad) and compared it with Australia. I wrote 4 different statistics for the full 4 marks comparing it with Australia


There was identify a country and use data to justify [2 marks]
and then account for the differences [i used access to health care and access to education.  i then compared australia and chad for both [2 marks each so total of 4 marks]].

Hmm interesting, thought the marks were a bit different but that's alright. Can't remember that exam that well ;)

pretty sure it was that
i could be wrong though haha
how did you find it?

I found it alright that one. Discussed the statistics of U5MR, Life expectancy, Maternal Mortality and Income I think. Was alright that question, did you find it alright? :)

wasnt it justify your choice of strata?
the only indicators for mortality strata are U5MR and adult mortality 15-59.
ahhhh as if i stuffed this up :(

It was justify whether it was a low or high mortality strata. So though those statistics, I believe we had to determine whether it was high or low, correct me if i am wrong someone. The very very last one was definitely compare the two and I thought that one was worth 4 marks. We need the exam badly, lol. Could of been easily worth 2 marks the very last one but the one asking to choose a country, pretty sure it was justify whether it was a high or low mortality country through the statistics.

i just justified saying they had a high u5mr.
did anyone else do that?
because other stuff doesnt justify the strata because it isnt taken into account [that stuff is more HDI] but it is useful for compare with Australia :)
maybe we're thinking about diff questions
i hope someone has a copy of the exam!!!!
but evidently no one cares about hhd as much lol

I am certain that the table also had Life Expectancy in it as well.. In order to justify it, think life expectancy was the main factor that we had to use. (Which I am 80% confident I didn't do, lol) I hope someone has a copy of the exam as well!!

Yep it was. Mortality strata only takes into account child and adult mortality rates. So therefore you would need to only use the U5 mortality rate statistics and the other mortality-related statistics to mould your answer for that one.

I honestly can't remember too well that question off the top of my head

noooo it's good u didnt use life expectancy!
it was a trap i talked to my friend who's a hhd teacher about it
they put it in to see who would use it
it doesnt directly related to mortality strata [it's an indicator of HDI - put in there to separate the people who don't know the diff between HDI and mortality strata!]

the only other one they had was maternal mortality [not taken into account in any of the measurement systems of development]

Then you would assume the strata level based off the U5 mortality rate then since that's a clear child mortality indicator? right? :S

So for a country with a evidently high U5 mortality rate, it would be either a D or E strata because A, B and C all define child mortality as being low or very low?

On another note: does anyone have a copy of the exam?

I think I did the same as you. I used Life Expectancy in the part where you have to compare the differences between Chad and Australia as it was a major difference. Thought it was a 4 mark question though (had 2 exams on Wednesday so could of easily mixed it up), i think you are right in your answer though :)

SHIT
would they penalise for not knowing the right strata?
i either said a high u5mr or very high u5mr and then put [possibly strata E] in brackets!!! :(

wasnt it justify your choice of strata?
the only indicators for mortality strata are U5MR and adult mortality 15-59.
ahhhh as if i stuffed this up :(

Yep it was. Mortality strata only takes into account child and adult mortality rates. So therefore you would need to only use the U5 mortality rate statistics and the other mortality-related statistics to mould your answer for that one.

I honestly can't remember too well that question off the top of my head

the only other one they had was maternal mortality [not taken into account in any of the measurement systems of development]

Then you would assume the strata level based off the U5 mortality rate then since that's a clear child mortality indicator? right? :S

So for a country with a evidently high U5 mortality rate, it would be either a D or E strata because A, B and C all define child mortality as being low or very low?

Yep!!!!
I chose chad - very high u5mr so probs stata E
not 100% sure though haha

From memory, Strata D :)

I chose Afghanistan and went with strata D for the justify question.. hope it wasn't E :p

Afghanistan is Strata D and Chad it also Strata D according to my text book. So full marks to you Aaron :)

How did everyone justify picking their low mortality strata country?
I just used U5MR but there was no adult mortality rates
I'm thinking 1 mark for picking the right country and 1 for justification using data on U5MR?

Hmm, was that the very last question with the table?

Yep! :)

I thought it was a 4 mark question. Had all these mortality rates and %'s in it. I chose the one that seemed the lowest to me (Chad) and compared it with Australia. I wrote 4 different statistics for the full 4 marks comparing it with Australia


There was identify a country and use data to justify [2 marks]
and then account for the differences [i used access to health care and access to education.  i then compared australia and chad for both [2 marks each so total of 4 marks]].

Hmm interesting, thought the marks were a bit different but that's alright. Can't remember that exam that well ;)

pretty sure it was that
i could be wrong though haha
how did you find it?

I found it alright that one. Discussed the statistics of U5MR, Life expectancy, Maternal Mortality and Income I think. Was alright that question, did you find it alright? :)

SHIT
would they penalise for not knowing the right strata?
i either said a high u5mr or very high u5mr and then put [possibly strata E] in brackets!!! :(

Didn't necessarily ask what Strata it is in so you won't be penalized I don't think :)
