heart model

Published

I am taking AP2 right now. We are learning the heart. Did anybody buy a heart model? If so where did you buy it?

Thanks

Nope never bought one when I was a student, just went over to the lab to use theirs.

I did a quick search on google though and lots came up- not sure if you really want to buy one but you can try this site:

Cheapest looks like its $39.95

Good luck!

We had actual sheep hearts that we could take home. I also spent time in the open lab. Best to try to go to open lab so you can look at some samples your teacher may use during the test.

Good luck!

Sure you want to purchase a model when there are lots of internet resources to learn about the heart?

See if any of my pics or quizzes are the same models you have in your lab. http://www.nursingjourney.com

Even if not, 1 heart won't be too much different from another. If you learn from several different models, if your instructor throws a different one out for the exam, you should be ok.

Good luck!!!!
