I'm struggling in Human Physiology. Any websites, tips, etc? I need all the help I can get. Still can't figure out what the difference is bewtween direct and oxidative phosphorylation.

I still don't know what my grade is, but I believe I have a B. Physiology is a b****. I hope nursing classes are not this difficult. I'm into the science thing, but it really wears on my brain. I wonder what a physiology major would study? I'm thinking maybe I can be a nurse first then a physiology major? I dunno. Crazy ideas of mine.

You will have to take pathophysiology when you start your nursing classes. I personally love Patho! Just took my final today and made an A for the semester. Physiology definitely helps you understand patho a lot more. You can major in physiology, but usually a career requires additional education before you start a career path. Physiology majors usually go on to become physiologist, physician, physical therapist, medical illustrator, speech pathologist, dentist, pathologist, pharmacologist, nurse, chiropractor, veterinarian, teacher, and researchers.. But most, if not all of these require further education. Sorry I don't really have any good study tips or websites! Just try and focus on the big picture of what you are learning and how it all relates, understanding the concepts as opposed to just memorizing facts.
