Hey guys, I just wanted to let you know that I'm applying for the traditional program at Flagstaff and Yuma campus. My GPA is 3.70 on the nose and this will be my first time doing this stuff. I have a degree in Exercise Science so I may have taken a bit more classes than you younger guys applying to the same program, I've decided to study for the Kaplan by exclusively basically studying crash course videos. I will let you know how it goes and I just wanted to put my information out there for any future students. I take the Kaplan August 10th, so you guys will have an opportunity to see how this turns out for me and maybe you can do the same, cheers.

Just took my Kaplan and I did terrible ? 

Science: Study Prokaryotes & Eukaryotes, Range of motions ( Flextion, externtion, rotation, addiction), organs that go with their system example: sleen = Lymphatic  system things like that, what engulfs foreign microbes in a puncture wound…it’s not microphages.., what controls fine movements..this question man UGH! it’s not  hypothalamus…other choices were Basal ganglia and Broca’s area can’t remember the fourth one, where is bile secreted, Mitosis and Meiosis (questions are like which of these are correct and wrong), acid base, endocrine (top job that it has), blood ( which of these is correct about blood), all four brain lobes know what they belong to example Occipital lobe = vision things like that, taxonomy largest to smallest, part of the brain that’s sensitive to emotionally danger stimuli..LOL something to that effect. Blood flow…veins, capillaries…the whole thing…if I remember anything else please don’t be shy and ask me ? I hope this helps all of you that is reading this sorry it’s not super detailed. 
 

math:  fractions (adding, subtracting, divide, multiply) , please learn a faster way to reduce bcuz it took a lot of time from me some of the answers are big numbers which need to be reduced, Roman numberals know how to figure out what 1825 is in Roman numberals, a lot of % conversations back to decimals and vise versa.. I remember a question like ‘if 18 is 75% of what number… ratios and proportions…

Reading:… What’s the main idea, where would this sentence fit, what is the author trying to say in ….., ACT book is great for this section 

Writing: ACT book is your best bet…I hated this one
