   fromwny replied to anonymousstudent's topic in General Students

   My A&P book is an international edition. It is absolutely the same as the US edition, including access code to the site. The only differences were the pictures on the cover and the price!

9. Can I do it??

   fromwny replied to Yuliya79's topic in Pre-Nursing

    fromwny replied to Yuliya79's topic in Pre-Nursing

14. Help us answer this question!

    fromwny replied to AKA_Glamour_Pearl's topic in General Students

    I would pick chicken. Peanut butter is too thick and too sweet, it sticks to your teeth and to your mouth. If there are any sores in your mouth, it is very very painful to eat a sticky food. So, I would say that chicken meat is a better choice.

15. Help - How to approach science courses

    fromwny replied to Phil313's topic in Pre-Nursing

    In my school A&P has a prerequisite, you can't take A&P before you are done with bio. Also, it might be hard to learn anatomy and physiology if you are not familiar with the biology. The same is with chemistry, A&P requires you to have so...
