The results are not as bad as you may think.
I'll curve and assign grades after a few more coffees.

One general note on something most of you got wrong and I can't have
you walking away from this course with this misconception:

Diastolic blood pressure is NOT (I repeat: NOT) the pressure in the
VENTRICLES during diastole! Think about it: normal BP values are 120
systolic over 80 diastolic in mmHg. Your diastolic blood pressure is
the pressure in the AORTA at the end of diastole!!!!!!!
Find systolic and diastolic blood pressures on the Wiggers diagram!!

Cheers,

Viktor

Thanks for teaching us physio. Hope my score was not that miserable. and for question 5 I screwed up by a factor of 100 becasue I did not multiply the  two decimal numbers correctly.
