A&P 1 Spring 08

[PreRN Katie]

Hi y'all! Anybody taking A&P 1 this coming spring semester? I'm trying to get as many pre-req's out of the way as possible and could use a study buddy or 2! Thanks! :)

For the tissues, I created notecards that had one organ listed on the front. On the back - the name of the major tissue type that makes it up.

I found that by just memorizing each tissue with one organ that i was somewhat familiar with - I could infer what purpose that tissue served. It made it easier to just pull it all together, and it was less overwhelming. It's kind of like a top down approach instead of the typical bottom up learning style.

I then found it easier to remember the other attributes of each tissue type because I could think about what purpose it served in it's "sample organ".

I would just like to say that my first test was tuff, but I came back strong on my second test with a B. I know I have to stay on top of the material because you can easily fall behind. I'm hoping to pass A&P1 with an A or B.

For my flash cards on tissues, I actually looked online, downloaded pictures of the tissues, and printed them in a size where I could tape them to the front of the flash card. That helped me a lot I think

Whoo! I passed my final today! I'm still waiting for the results of my essays but at least I'm sure I'll get a B! I'm so happy it's over... I was getting really tired of my instructor and the online format. :) Good luck to all of you!!
