The videos are sooooo good!! They really break down the powerpoints and make everything so much easier to understand. Thank you Prof. Harb!!

When I tell you that applying the image of the tub for understanding prevalence to questions made a difference in me understanding the concepts I mean it wholeheartedly... literally saved me from so much confusion.

These are gems! Thank you!

This chapter was an intense read, I am glad you provided a great video to explain it. (The electricity just came back on in my home! I have been trying to watch this video in it entirety since Sunday! It is Thursday afternoon! I hope the electricity stays on longer than 15 minutes this time! STAY WARM AND SAFE!)

Thank you Jay!! I have definitely been trying to work offline this week! Stay safe and warm :)

In the video 14.05 ..the question for prevalence for those without bladder cancer .The denominator b+d ..is it 594...then answer would b 42.9 %

[@HealthbyHarb]

Yes this is correct- thank you for the catch :)

[@evelynlim6230]

Agree, initially I thought I made the mistake 😂 should be 255/ 594 = 42.92% by the way , the questions abit confusing. For this question, you should be more specific on doing this research in 2 different hospitals. I am a doctor, I found out its was abit confusing 🫤 initially. Obviously you can co lab same research in different areas, but , please mention earlier , especially for the exam questions

Thank you! I took screenshots of your examples because you made them easy to understand. Will there be any speed repetition for this lecture? Also, will there be questions on our next quiz like the examples you showed? I want to make sure I'm prepared if there are going to be such questions.

[@HealthbyHarb]

Hi Makenzie! Thank you for the feedback :) Yes this is a great question- the practice problems throughout this video replace your spaced repetition as this is how your quiz questions will be tested. Hope this helps!

@@HealthbyHarb Sounds good! Will be be able to use the diagram to help us form the equations or will it have to be memorized?

[@HealthbyHarb]

@@makenzielampe these will have to be committed to memory :)
