Once again becc, the cutoff is generally 70-75% so you could probably lose around 25 marks and still get a 40.

daymmmmmmmmmmmmmm in that case then were all in the 40s range

is the cut offs on the vcaa webbie?

[Vadnal]

Yeah look at the grade distributions for each year.

oh thanks ive been trying to find that ...but i looked at it but where does it say that its 70's for A+ range? i didnt understand the whole table =S

[littlebecc]

where does it say that its 70's for A+ range? i

if you go down to the table 'written examination' and go to the a+ bit, very bottom row says 'score ranges'
131-180/180
131 divided by 180 x100 gives you a percent of 72

What did everyone write for the question on Medicare? It was about the 4th question first page... It was worth 3 marks and I had no idea how to divide my answer.

i wrote how it allows access to healthcare as its free for everyone and so income isnt a limit or a barrier to seeing a docor when needed and lalala


thanks lilbecc

Yeah, same here I was worried that I didn't put enough information in for three marks, some of the marks they award questions were quite odd. Started writing beneath the lines for a few questions, hopefully they read it.

yah actually i wrote more then i need for like every question.....not draining it but i dot think theres enough space to begin with

[traciet]

Yeah, some oddly spaced questions I thought. What did you put for the question on the indicators WHO use? I put down child and adult mortality rates, mainly because it said list and it was the first thing that came to mind. Obviously there are a lot of indicators, wasn't too sure if WHO used them though... Am a little worried though because even though they're both different indicators of health, they're both still mortality. hmmm

[nemolala]

i did mortality strata and U5MR or life expectancy cant remember now

i seriously think the choice of question were the dumb part of the whole subject...could hav be a lot better

[Mitchyv]

For that developed and developing one according to WHO
apprently you had to use stuff like who regions mortality strata and all that
which sucks that's only question I know of that I got wrong

what did you put down then?

[traciet]

I don't think that stating the WHO regions would be accepted? They do not specifically distinguish between developing and developed countries. There are both developed and developing countries in many WHO regions. Yeah, it had potential to be a really good exam, was too easy I reckon and the questions were crap.
