Performance of participants on theoretical knowledge of noma. Data is presented as totals and segregated by highest educational level. Secondary level was omitted as it was only represented by one participant. To assess differences between the two educational levels, Fisher’s exact test was used for categorical variables and T-test for numerical variables as they were parametric ( ^#). Statistics in bold were statistically significant (p<.05). Marks for each question are indicated in the mark scheme in annex.
