Hi Thanks for the advice I`m over the moon
passed my exam like you I`d advice anyone to read the questions & then re read them. I answered the ones I knew first Then went back & did the ones I wasn`t sure of Only got 3 wrong should have got 2 of them right as knew the answers.

Hi,

I`ve just done my VTCT A & P exam & passed 88% I know you`re doing the ITEC All I can suggest is to revise nearer the time but give yourself little treats. Mine were choccie & a glass or 2 of wine once done my revision. When you get to the stage when it won`t sink in. Walk away & go back to it later.

Keep smiling you`ll be fine :0)

VCTC A&P paper

Hi everyone,

I took A&P vctc in Jan, got 100 % ( was really shocked ) thought I had been given someone elses results, now doing reflexology which I must stay is hard going straight after A&P, anyway spoke to some one who took the exam last week, not sure but wa told that the questions have apprantley changed from the ones I took in Jan. So beware !!! to remember I used to make up jigsaw puzzles in my head and place post it notes around the house to remind me all the systems and functions etc...... good luck every one just chill out and take a deep breath it's sometimes not as bad as we all think it will be ! were I go to college if you did fail you were still allowed to go on to do your chosen holistic course and just sat the exam the next time round.... if I had known that I would have relaxed a little as I had paid for the relexology already as the spaces go really quick so loads of pressure to pass!!!!

Hi everybody !

Has anyone sat the itec Anatomy & Physiology exam lately ? Sitting mine at end of May and getting nervous ! Would really appreciate it if anyone could post any questions they might remember. I will do the same after the exam.

Thank you lots !

I just sat my exam, I believe it was changed yesterday so it should be it for the next 6 weeks. Here are questions I remember:

-Not epitheliai tissue (cancellous)
-Which vitamins does liver store (B1, B13, B6, D, C, K etc)
-Name of what is between vertebrae (intervertebrae, intravertebrae etc)
-Lymph nodes ( recognize them)
-Muscles of the back
-Energy in cell (mitochondria)
-Names of membranes (synovial, mucous, serous)
-What do erythrocytes do ( carry O2 and Haemoglobin)
-Which organ is responsible for homeostasis (brain, liver, heatr, kidney. Brain is I think)
-Inspiration and expiration: diaphragm contract/flexes, chest expands/shrinks
-Lymph flows into the bloodstream staight away
-Is voluntary muscle instriated or what
-Motor neurons deliver between...(CNS and sensory organs I think)
-Hormones of the female reproduction system (oestrogen, androgen, progesteron)
-Parts of the nephron
-Where is pepsin in body (stomach)
-Order of digestive system ( read through carefully, the right one doesn`t start with mouth!)
-Does pituitary gland control the hormones in the body
-Something about where is portal vein (Kidney I think)
-How many lobes in left lung(2)
-How many chromosomes are there in cell (46)
-Gaseous exchange (alveoli)
-Where does the brain recieves smells (through olfactory bulb)

Can`t remember last two, that should help though. Good luck!

Hi Sineady !!

Are you doing the itec A&P exam in Ireland ? I'm doing mine in two weeks.....have you any idea of any of the questions that are coming up ? Lily Pond did the exam last night - Im not sure if she is in Ireland or England but maybe they don't change the papers - Im not sure.

Have a look at her post - it might help you. If you received any info, let me know !

Thanks and Good Luck ! Keep in touch !!

Hi 17beus17 !!

Thanks for posting up your exam questions ! As there were 25 questions, is it the vctc a&p exam you did ?

Tanya10.

No A&P exam

Im suprised how many people are sitting an A&P exam for VTCT as we dont have an exam but instead an unreasonable amount of coursework to do, which sounds more appealing but is near impossible! Only a few weeks to as well!!!
Is anyone else in the same situation?

Hiya

The way we've done it is this:

We study each of the body systems, complete a workbook which we do in the class, and sit an exam before we move on to the next system. This week we sat our last exam, the tutor signed off the record sheet and log book, and when we get the results of the exam after half term we'll be signed off completely! Simple. Perhaps your tutor needs to talk to mine to find out how to do it simply!

hi im new to site

hope you dont mind me sending you a message, im new to the site and just getting to grips with it.

you may be able to help me ,i have just enrolled in the indian head masssage diploma vtct at nuneaton tech.... i realise your not a million miles away in coventry so wondered whether you knew anything about the course content. i have read so many different things on the forum i'm now confused about what exams i have to sit if any????
do you have a copy of exam questions as i have seen on the site some questions for a vtct A+P exam ... is this the same one. HELP IM NEW AND CONFUSED. thanks a lot amanda xx:confused:

Hi
I am new to this site and it has so far really heled with my revision for my exam. I was just wondering if anyone has sat the vctc a and p exam recently and know what the pass rate is? Any help is much appreciated
Thanks

70% is the pass rate.

If you just fail with a "borderline" mark i.e. 68% etc, I believe your tutor has the right to suggest your paper is re-marked. This may not be true for all colleges though, so best to speak with your tutor to find out the outcome of passing/failing scenarios.

Remember, you are allowed to re-sit at a later date.

Good luck.

Hey, thanks for that. Hopefully it'll go ok. I have my a and p, the health and safety and my practical so should be an interesting day.

Hi jamjar,

Unfortunately the new guidelines that were put in place a few days ago sadly means current exam questions are no longer allowed to be posted on the forums.:(

more recent advice - 2013?!

Hello !
I will be sitting my A&P Vtct in April 2013 and am wondering if there is anyone reading that has any advice re the exams that is recent?
I have read throught the past papers you lovely people have provided, and at this stage feel i could take the exam on the work I have done, although I also know that there is a lot i DONT know still!!!!

What is my main concern is, is whether we have to know the insertion points for all muscles or just that that muscle exists and where it is located? Because if we have to know the insertion points then we will need to know the grooves and markings on the bones - so do we need those too? My gut is saying no, that that is far too much detail, but id like to be sure!!!

Many thanks in advance!

VTCT A&P exam

Cazzroo,

I sat the exam yesterday, apparently it has just been changed again so you may sit the same one.
I'm fairly confident to say you don't need to know insertion points. So long as you have revised sufficiently you should be okay. They questions were fairly similar to the ones posted above.

There where a few that caught me out. The first one was the temperature of the treatment room. I opted for 20-25 degrees but it was 16-19! The other one was what element of the skin synthesises vit D, apparently it's cholesterol- who knew, not me!

There was a diagram of the skin that needs to be labelled, I think it was 15 parts, they are all listed, you need to match them up.

I can't remember all the Q's but I'll try to give you some pointers.

Know the three main body types, endo, ecto and mesomorph.
Know where the parietal bone is.
Know what hypo-pigmentation is
Know the axial skeleton parts
Know what makes up the CNS
Know you lymph gland locations in the lower body in particular

I can't think of any more at the moment but you should be fine. Good luck
