Department of Physiology Fall 2014 PSIO 201 Human Anatomy and Physiology Final Exam Study Guide Exam format sh is ar stu ed d vi y re aC s o ou urc rs e eH w er as o co m The final exam is cumulative and optional The final exam will consist of 40 multiple choice questions 4 points per question There will be 10 questions covering the integration lectures and 30 questions covering the rest of material presented in this class with an emphasis on the objectives listed below The final exam will include new exam questions rather than repeating questions from previous exams The final exam score can replace the score for one of the four regular exams in this course The top four scores will count towards the student s final grade there is no penalty for taking the final exam Objectives for
