Am I the only one?

A&P is easy but if you are taking it while in nursing school I can see why one would struggle. I think its best to get classes like this done before entering the nursing program because you can focus more on memorizing and understanding the content so you can pass

What videos have you been watching? I'm always recommending these videos of Professor Marian Diamond at Cal-Berkeley:

I know a lot of people in my university struggle with those classes mainly because we have one teacher for each subject, which both speak little English. -__-

Uhm there was an interactive website I used during anatomy online that was free and you can test yourself with where the parts are of the heart, but I don't believe it helps with how the body works..

I believed that site helped a lot, but then again we also had to label a cadaver.

DRAW!!!

I found that out after countless hours of trying to memorise, youtube videos, 5 different textbooks... that the best way to remeber a process or function is to draw it out 6 times or so... and then you can draw it next to a test question - and POOF! easy peesy... Later on the knowledge clicks when you do clinicals and so on... but if it's just about getting a good grade on a test, then this is what i recommend.

I second the drawing suggestion. Also I recommend notecards. It is a very time consuming course but so much of nursing will come back to A&P in one way or another.
