This criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeSelect one of the possible topics provided and complete the MindMap.Describe the Pathophysiology and Etiology of the primary diagnosis. List risk factors related to the primary diagnosis.	30to >27.0ptsExcellentA thoroughly completed MindMap with a selected topic was submitted. The response accurately and thoroughly describes in detail the pathophysiology at the cellular level and shows understanding of the primary diagnosis. The response accurately and thoroughly identifies etiology for the diagnosis and lists appropriate risk factors. 27to >23.0ptsGoodA completed MindMap with a selected topic was submitted. The response describes the pathophysiology at the organ level of the primary diagnosis. The response does not identify specific etiology for the diagnosis and some risk factors are not linked to diagnosis. 23to >19.0ptsFairAn inaccurately complete or vague MindMap with a selected topic was submitted. The response inaccurately or vaguely describes the pathophysiology of the primary diagnosis.
