Try you tube. There are a lot of videos from reputable sources that do an excellent job of visually explaining concepts in A&P, med-surg, mental health nursing etc. Some of my classmates used You Tube videos to supplement their study guides and did very well.

Test banks = cheating.

Huh? Maybe I don't understand what a test bank is. We were required to buy an NCLEX test prep book for our ADN program. It has hundreds of sample questions with teh answers for us to practice. Isn't a test bank the same thing?
