Examiners report
A more challenging question for candidates. Most candidates selected C as the answer, but the response to the distractors was evenly distributed. Indicating candidates either new the answer or had to guess. The image was referred to in G2 comments as not being the most accessible and this will be considered for future papers. However, it is important that candidates use a variety of materials that represent the anatomical view of the body.
