A&P 2 Spring 2013

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Hi just wondering who all will be taking this class in the spring. I created this forum so we can discuss how the class is going and to motivate each other.

I am scheduled to take my first unit exam this week. My Professor basically made it possible for us to do well...and for that reson I can't score below a 90%. Studying faithfully is all I do. As for Micro...ummm.

Our first exam is Wednesday! I am nervous. I was spending all my time doing chemistry homework, but decided not to take the chem & apply to a differet BSN program. Tomorrow and Tuesday will be all day studying to make an A for A & P 2!

How is everyone doing in this class so far? I have midterms next week and then Spring break. I have my second exam next week for lecture. (Midterm is for lab). I am hoping for an A. I have one in the lab component and a B in lecture. I will be working extra hard to make an A.

I am taking AP2 this semester. All I can say is "oooo weee"! My teacher is nice but she has a VERY heavy accent. We took our first test last week and got the results last night. The highest score in the class was 86. She curved it to an A and gave us all 4 points. The lowest grade was a 38. Thankfully, I was not at the bottom but I definitely wasn't happy with my grade. It was far from the A that I need to achieve in this course.. I'm hoping that this test wasn't indicative of what is to come for the rest of the semester. I sent a text to my AP1 professor and requested that he be my tutor this semester. He didn't say "no" so I think that he will help as much as he can. Unfortunately, I'm taking Micro this semester in addition to working full time. This leaves limited opportunities to meet with him since he teaches at another school. Where there is a will, there is a way!

Keep me in your prayers!

I'm taking Chemistry this semester in addition to A&P 2 and they are both crazy!

What was everyones first unit in APII? I am curious because I am noticinge that our course layout over API and APII seems to be different than other schools...

We started what our school calls ADV A & P this semester with Neural tissue physiology, then reflexes and CNS, then finished with 2 chapters of neural integration (pathways/PSNS/SNS/etc...)

Our last exam in A & P 1 was the nervous system. For this semester in A & P 2 we started with the cardiovascular system & split it up into three seperate exams (blood, heart and now blood vessels). I haven't been doing as hot these first few weeks since I was sick, but I'm hoping with the remaining 6 exams (we have 8 total & lowest will be dropped), I can kick butt like I did in A & P 1.

Hi All. I thought I would jump in on this. I too am taking AP2 this semester. I earned an A in AP1. And an A on the first exam - Endocrine Exam. However, the last test I got a 76% - I was so disappointed. Who would have though the Reproductive System was going to be the hardest exam to date in both classes (well OK maybe with the exception of the Cum Final in AP1).

I am just hoping this exam was more difficult than most - and not a sign of what is to come for the rest of the semester.

Exam 3 is next week and covers the entire Cardiovascular System including 3 chapters. I have a feeling it is going to be H-A-R-D!!!

Best of Luck to all of you!!!!!

Midterms next week for me!!!!

I have an endocrine exam on Monday and I am getting to a point of information overload! Next week we take on the cardiovascular system. We dissected pig hearts in lab this week which was really cool.

So far so good...We've covered Endocrine and Blood and are now on Cardiovascular sys and blood vessels. I'm dreading the lab exam with the blood vessels - there's just so many of them! So far I have an A but we have a lot of material left to cover.

So how did everyone do on finals. I just found out I made an A. :-D:-D:-D:-D:-D doing a happy dance
