thats what i totally screwed up.shais said:easy as , except i screwd up my improving performance question (last 2) ..
Are, I mixed them I think... just rattled about anxiety managing techniques like visulisation, possitive self talk mental rehersal etc....JimmyJimJim said:Here's a question, on that last one (I think) in the core booklet, did you guys write about motivation dash points and managing anxiety dash points?
sportylake said:yeh i strugdled with that a bit to. think ill only be looking at 7-8 outa 12 for that which is very disappointing.
Does anybody know what the scaling/alignment of raw marks is like for PDH?
what would:
70% raw = aligned?
80% raw = aligned?
I had them options, overall i think they were pretty good and fair! If you studied your two options - I guess they did require some lateral thinking (i just wrote up some plans before i started my answers).Else Vondor said:yeh, I thought the exam was pretty ok. I thought it would be worse.
Who else had:
Improving performance
sports medicine
as their options?
What did you guys think of them. I thought they were ok, but I think I was a bit vague answering! With power and speed, what was with that? hah... its over!!
It changes every year and is dependent upon the cohort - how everyone performed in the test.sportylake said:yeh i strugdled with that a bit to. think ill only be looking at 7-8 outa 12 for that which is very disappointing.

i said goal setting and mentioned long and short term goals, and to put them somewhere that they'd see often to keep up the motivation.Else Vondor said:Are, I mixed them I think... just rattled about anxiety managing techniques like visulisation, possitive self talk mental rehersal etc....
Motivation... I wasnt sure what to put! How about you....
No, i think it should be ok was very brief an athlete in the "sport of your choosing" so I doubt they wanted us to be too specific about that aspect!gen.shottaffeta said:i said goal setting and mentioned long and short term goals, and to put them somewhere that they'd see often to keep up the motivation.
then the rest of was like progrssive muscular relaxation, mental rehearsal, all that.
but i realised after that i didnt really link it to the sport. were we meant to?
the 12 marker in improving performance sucked
i talked alot about principles of training and linked them specifically to speed/power.
oh well, nothing we can do now!
sounds like you did well! Yeh, I didnt link it too a sport iether... ooooops!gen.shottaffeta said:i said goal setting and mentioned long and short term goals, and to put them somewhere that they'd see often to keep up the motivation.

Yeh, I talked about plyometrics mainly and overloading the energy systems, as well as a bit of streagnth training. Sounds like you did really well. Im not sure ow I'll go... at least got a few relevant points down though!chrisbos2007 said:I had them options, overall i think they were pretty good and fair! If you studied your two options - I guess they did require some lateral thinking (i just wrote up some plans before i started my answers).
The power and speed one was decent - wrote 6/7 pages or so just talking about how its evident in numerous sports its benefit in some sports over maximal strength, elaborated in depth on plyometrics, talked bout the stuff like speed peaking at age 20 - declining at age 28 approximately - the three main points that need to be considered like power of limbs, efficient technique and speed of the limbs.
I also included resistance training just drew up a little table of what could possibly be followed for optimal gains etc. I even had time to just mention how flexibility can contribute etc just by increasing bio-mechanical efficiency, reduce chance of injury and so on! What did you end up putting?
same too you, we shall c when we get our results back!Else Vondor said:Yeh, I talked about plyometrics mainly and overloading the energy systems, as well as a bit of streagnth training. Sounds like you did really well. Im not sure ow I'll go... at least got a few relevant points down though!
i totally agree i was so fuc**d for improving performance.nick3157 said:the 12 mark question in improving performance sucked.

Haha, don't worry I didn't hang on to every word you said. From the part in bold I highlighted just shows how much my mind wasn't in the test. Studied it but didn't mention those AT ALL. Fuck, I wanted a good PDHPE result.savio23q said:I did say have a fair idea of the ALL of them. Besides, I only studied about diabetes, not injuries. I managed to talk about road accidents and suicides for injuries. Also, if you knew how priority areas were identified (social justice principles, prevalence of the condition, priority population groups, cost to community and individual and potential for change) then you shouldn't have had a big problem with it. It didn't need to you talk about the nature or trends or anything like. The space was pretty limited too so you really couldnt have talked about the nature..
omg i know! same here.. but i srsly thought there would b a question on it.. so i took some time out to tryyy and learn it.. but neways its best there wasnt oneInstinct77 said:thats very lucky, i studied mostly everything and still didn't feel that great about it but at the end of reading time i was smiling, thought it was good!
so glad jakarta decleration wasn't in the exam, or i would of failed that question.
