Is anyone here takining A&P II this spring besides me? I was wondering, what have you all heard about the difficulty of this class? Do you hear that it is harder than I, easier, or about the same? I loved A&P I, but some of it was really tough for me (sliding filament theory, nerves, etc.). I did end up with an A, because I studied my butt off, but I'm hoping to be in the nursing program this spring, and I know that's going to keep me really busy as it is.
It helps me knowing that the professor for this class is pretty cute! :chuckle
I hope A&P2 is easier than I. I made sure I had the best teacher at my school when I signed up for the class this semester. I have a lot more time to study than when I was taking 1. I hope to get an a with hard work and studying. Good Luck to you all!
I am so glad to see this thread up and running. The one last semester for A&P I was so helpful. I just started my A&P II class yesterday. I have a whole new professor and have to adjust my learning for this class. We are starting with the Nervous System, we did endocrine last semester. Best of Luck to everyone.
Since we didn't completly finish the Nervous System last semester, we started with a review and finish-up of that this past week. We're moving on to the Edocrine System on Tuesday.
Do we want to start a study group for A&P II for this spring?
We did the nervous system in ap1 last semester. This semester in ap2, we strted with the special senses and covered the eye and the ear. Our first test is this Thursday. Last week we started the Endocrine system and it sure is alot of hormones to remeber.
I'm taking A&P II this semester as well. I got a C in A&P. But I've really where I fell short at then and am planning to work much harder in A&P II to get an A. I'm going to apply for Nursing school for Fall 2009. If anyone can offer great tips on how to get through A&P II greatly please share.
im taking nursing 130 and a&p ii this spring 09 too.. i heard a&p ii is so much easier than i though...but i guess to each its own ..ill have to find out on my own..good luck everyone!
So far so good. Met our new instructor last Thursday in lab (lecture was cancelled due to bad weather last week). This is her first semester teaching and she is VERY young. She seems nice and baiscally indicated she will be lecturing straight from the book which is nice, since I like our text a lot (the Marieb text) Only negative so far was that lecture was cancelled last week and we were basically on our own for blood.
We had our first AP2 test last week on the Special Senses. It wasn't too bad. Can't wait to see what I got today. Our next quiz is this Thursday on the Endocrine System. There are so many glands/hormones to remember. Ah well but for me so far, easier than AP1.
I got my test results from our first quiz yesterday. I got a 95. Tomorrow, is our second quiz on the Endocrine system and next Thursday is our exam that covers Endocrine, Special Senses and the Blood.
Our teachers lectures out of his head. It is a lot of material but if you take good notes and study hard, the class shouldn't be that hard.
i missed one on a quiz today. the hypothalamus makes oxytocin, not the posterior pituitary! the post pit only stores it! arrrrgh i knew that:madface::madface:
..ill have to find out on my own..good luck everyone!
