sounds like you'll be fine then, don't sweat it so hard.

OH SHIT? pop quiz?
"whats the coding for an enzyme in cell tissue that breaks down monoamines ?"

This is an interpretation thing. You have a condition and multiple codes that could potentially be associated with that condition. The codes are so loosely defined and overlapping, that there can in reality be multiple legitimate answers, but only one is correct according to the book and the class. Although they'll admit that insurance companies will typically accept any valid coding for the condition.

That about sum it up?

Exactly.

She did revise the grades and I got a 64 with the class average 61.71. I'm still not pleased. Apparently this is first time the class has been online AND in the classroom. I think they need to go back to classroom only and get a teacher, not a nurse to teach it. The nurse kept telling us what WASN'T important when it didn't matter since we were still going to be tested on it. We filled out an evaluation and I made my thoughts clear

When the grades are that low across the board, that's a sign that the instruction was inadequate.

Made a B for the semester. I know it would have been an A if it wasn't for that damn grade.

Soundsl like a fun class
