A&P covered in LPN school?

[Courtney_123]

Any LPN graduates or current students that can tell me what to expect as far as A&P goes in LPN school? I start in jan and already have my books so I've been looking over my A&P book, as it intimidates me the most, especially since I've never taken an A&P course. What organ systems are usually covered in LPN school? Or what should I be brushing up on before school starts?

Thanks!

A&P is typically (or at least frequently) a prerequisite to any nursing program. Where I went to school, there was no difference in A&P as a class regardless of what you were moving on to. The lab component is what I found most difficult. It involved identifying "parts" by site and labeling them. They also had to be spelled correctly to be right. Muscles were the most difficult for me followed by bones.

The Anatomy Coloring Books have been helpful to hundreds of nurses and medical students to learn this difficulty subject. I see there is also a Physiology one now/ Best wishes in your LPN Program.
