A & P final grades are in, what's urs

Published

My final grade in A&P I is a 93.8% I feel free but then I don't. Because two Monday's from now part 2 of A&P summer semester starts and eight weeks seems kinda scary to me. Good luck to all of you out there.

A&P 1 was B- and A&P 2 was A-. This was last year.

Finals this and next week, just took my final lab practical for A&P1, hoping to get an A. Pulling for an A- in lecture.

Would you say a&p 2 was a bit easier than 1? That's what I've been hearing.

I am almost finished with A & P 2 and have found it harder. It is not just straight memorization but more of physiological processes (which we only got a taste of in part 1).

Back when I took A&P (2010), I had a 108% before the lab grade and final calculated in. My school has plus/minus system. Anything over a 100 was still an A.

A&p 2 is way harder, definitely more of the why and how (...this would be physiology...) As opposed to the foot bone is connect to the knee bone (anatomy). I had to retake these course after taking an unexpected 5 year break because of relocation and babies, so I've experienced this at two different schools, community college level and state university level.

Personally, I find understanding how something works to be MUCH easier than memorizing a million things. Looking forward to A&P 2!

@atlback2rn I thought A&P 2 was more challenging, more body processes and concepts to understand. But I also took it during a winter semester which was 8 wks and 14 hrs each week. It was a lot to fit into a small period if time, but manageable.

For me it is. Your mileage may vary.

Thanks for the input everyone. Going to enjoy this break before tackling A&P 2. Guess it all depends on the instructor and person. Its undoubtedly lot of info to retain no matter how you look at it.

Finishing up anatomy next week! Hoping to keep a B! lab has been the hardest for me! Have a hard time coming up with the names without looking at them! Lecture is my favorite and have done well so far will be takin physiology in the summer!! (My school doesn't have them merged into a&p)
