Anytime Rod  :D
Yeah, for us high achievers  8) (lol) we tend to overthink things and we actually do better than we believe we did  :)
What was the 9 marker (if you can still remember it!)?

Thanks, stressing  :-[ sacs in a coupla weeks.. Wahhhh
No need to stress, you will ace it MM! :)

I can't remember it fully but it was something like this ;

High blood pressure, high blood cholesterol and other heart conditions are all conditions that affect the Indigenous population. Using the social and physical determinants of health, and also all the risk factors show in the figure below (there was about 6 with lots of stats), describe factors that may induce these conditions. It was something like that.

I was just like; what the faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaark!

But in the end was able to discuss 5 different determinants (social and physical) and also incorporate all risk factors into my answer. It was like a mini essay!

@Past HHD students, in exams would we ever face such high marked questions?

Yay we've passed a 100 posts :). Went so quick!

I find out on Friday. My friend and I are stressing heaps, he is rank 2 and I'm rank 1 atm, so if we f up in this one our rank will go down heaps ;'(. But on the bright side I think it was hard for everyone.

You still have weeks! Why are you stressing ? :)

Just keep doing what you are doing, and you will do really well Max :)

Oh Rod, if only it were that easy...  :P
I'm just not where I want to be in terms of prep, but I'll do a bit tonight and see how I go  :)

Thanks for the encouragement, I needed it  :P

We started the NHPA's today ;\. Very interesting stuff, but have a feeling that we are going to rush through it. Have we started it really late compared to all you guys?

And Walkec how was it :D?

We started NHPAs yesterday, so I don't think you've started it late.

And my SAC was pretty good Rod, don't want to jinx it though  :P There were some really good application questions for determinants on it too  :)

SAC on NHPA's + nutrients next Wednesday :( (first half). And then the second half on the last period of the day of school </3.

Do SACS make up 50 or 40% of your SS?

Pretty sure it's 50% but I could be wrong
