Every uni is different but most of them look at your UMAT scores and if they are good enough then they have an interview stage

Well firstly it depends on what textbook you have. I know the Tim Riley one has a lot of info and it does seem a lot of hassle to memorise but if you get the Dixon one and just look at the key concepts first it's easier. Also you will eventually find that in economics its all about concepts...

Glucose water amino acid --> reabsorbed Urea, water, drugs etc. filtered out I think

I also said something about Watson and Crick and discovery of karyotypes, beedle and tatum. Pretty much every scientist we learn of in the module and evolutionary techniques.

I said substrate concentration Don't think time is right since aren't we measuring the time taken for the enzyme to function? But I may be wrong IDK

For the disease question I said that our concern in disease management etc has shifted from treatment and use of pesticide towards prevention and control then gave example of public health programs and malaria control programs. Is that right?

Oh thanks :) that clears up my confusion

Okay never mind. It seems my school went over the top with the dialysis dot point.

Well in school we studied two different types of dialysis. Hemo is the dialysis machine and peritoneal is another type. So do we have to focus on both types for the HSC course since most textbooks only seem to focus on hemodialysis?

Can somebody please clarify this about dialysis: If we are asked a question on comparing dialysis to kidney do we just focus on haemo dialysis or hemo dialysis and peritoneal dialysis?
