Whats great about the ADAM software is- you can print out pictures from it. I printed them out and colored them with colored pencils. Then I made flashcards.. You will do fine...Study like you always do.. ?

I havent ever heard of the ADAM software. What is that?

Some schools use the ADAM software.

I know that was such a bland answer. LOL

I googled "ADAM Anatomy" and it actually showed a few images as well. I've heard good things about it, but I'm sure it's expensive.

My ADAM software came with my on-line class as the actual LAB since we did it all on-line.. Its a very detailed software program seprated by each part of the body, including each organ system. We would open up a section and peel off "layers" one by one. Allowing you to review Female parts and male parts, from all angles and different degrees of 3-D. It was VERY TIME consuming, sometimes making me wish I took the class traditionally.. But- My point was- it was $40.00 as a lab fee.. I wonder if that is the price.. Probably not... If you have a lab or some other detailed book, you may never even use it if you were to buy it on your own...

I would guess the $40.00 is just buying a individual license to a program the school has already bought into. wave.gif.f76ccbc7287c56e63c3d7e6d800ab6c

WOW!! It sounds very complicated, but I would love to see what it is like. I don't think I want to buy it though. What little savings I have, I think I had better hang onto it.

So, the school buys it and the students buy out the schools part? Hmmm $40.00 is a pretty hefty lab fee. Besides, you wouldnt have the hands on and that helps me out.
