These comments apply to the ANHB 2212 examination only!
The ANHB 2212 examination has written and lab components. These pages give information on the nature of the examination and how to handle it. They are fairly detailed and … well, you will find a lot here, short of actual exam questions!!
It may appear that each aspect of the examination has separate anatomy and histology components. In reality, there is considerable overlap and integration in many questions.
The written examination.
|
The three-hour
written examination carries 50% of the total mark for this examination.
It has two sections. Section A has 30 multiple
choice questions (MCQs) and Section
B has four ‘write-on’ type questions - that is, answers are to be written in the
space provided on the paper. Time
management is of importance. The time allotment for the paper is quite liberal.
Ideally, the thirty MCQs should not take more than 60 minutes. |
It is left to you how you spend the “reading time” for a paper. In my (personal) opinion, reading time is best spent on the write-on questions – MCQs are answered as you read them.
When you begin answering, it is best to complete one section before you start the other. Shuttling between MCQ and Short-Answer sections may have an unsettling effect.
The Lab (“Practical”) examination.
This carries 30% of the total mark and comprises 25 ‘spot’ questions largely based on identifiable components of anatomy and histology studied during the unit. Each ‘spot’ or ‘station’ has an ‘exhibit’ with four or five short questions.
The two tests during the semester together account for 20% of the total mark.
