Just Started A&P...Need Advice and Or Help! A little long...

Nurses General Nursing

Published

Well after years of going back and forth from IT to Nursing. I finally decided to stick with Nursing and go full steam ahead. I have been messing around with computers for about ten years and finally decided it is more of a hobby. I talked to my mom about getting her help(financially), so I could really focus on doing well. She was very excited to help(she is the VP and CAO of a local Hospice here in San Diego) so she knows the industry and how rewarding and stable it is.

Back to my topic, got a little side tracked, sorry. I had my first A&P lab yesterday and it was brutal. I knew nothing, the instructor did not go over anything. It was basically here ya go. Luckily, I was teamed up with three other people that were very willing too help me out. My first day of lecture is tomorrow and I thought I would get a jump start, the instructor basically gave us what we needed to know for the mid term and final. I start reading what he said we will need and it was like reading a foreign language. I got frustrated and and went and worked out.

My question is after all that LOL...should I just wait for the lecture tomorrow so he can explain it detail, or should I try to read more? I read a couple of pages and a few minutes later, I could not even tell you what I just read.

I hope this is in the right forum?

The "Made Incredibly Easy!" series makes a book for anatomy and physiology. I find all the books in their series pretty good for breaking down difficult subjects into a more digestible form. ;)

Borders and Barnes and Noble have them, can order on amazon, etc.

I just ordered the A&P from half.com, thanks for the link!

You're welcome, and good luck!

It's pretty much learning a new language...once you start to get the building blocks down, it will make more sense.
