what did you say about the usefulness for a doctor?


I said that the test was usefull since the probability of having type A was 0.7 so it's more likely the person has typeA
is this for the C12 spec or the new P1 and P2 spec???

I said that it wont be useful as the first line of the question said that the 2 types (A-B) were mutually exclusive so I said that they had nothing in common

well even tho they were mutually exclusive, don't you think there's a probability of having no diseases of disease A

how did you get that?

Can’t remember the question too clearly but I can remember doing 3x(3/4) because it asked after 3 rolls and I believe for 3 probabilities and each probability was 1/4.

^^^ continuing from above, I got 3/4 by adding the probabilities 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4

Anyone got anything different?
Can’t lie it was a pretty difficult paper
It was the most difficult S1 paper I’ve ever done... I’ve done like 20 papers and none of them were as challenging
that's exactly what happens when you solve too many past papers. The fewer papers you solve, the easier the paper gets.
