A&P 1 Fall '06 Club!

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

Just wanted to start a "club" for those of us who are taking A&P 1 this fall.

My class is 16 weeks. I have lecture on M/W/F for one hour each day and lab on Tues for 3 hrs.

My teacher for lecture & lab (same person) is awesome! She gives us a weekly quiz, drops the lowest one. Gives us extra credit. Four major tests. Final is comprehensive. (Ick)

She gave us handouts for chapter 1 and we just fill in what we want as she pretty much has everything she wants in these handouts. She told us we don't have to bring our big, heavy book to class - she'd tell us page numbers of tables, pictures she wanted us to know. As a matter of fact - she said we don't have to use the book that was sold to us for this semester. She said we could use any book like Saladin, etc., and make copies if any diagram, table is different. Pretty nice there.

Okie dokie - who else?

I am also taking A & P1 and so far it's been good.

I am 3 chapters ahead of the class and I intend to always stay ahead.

I wish you all luck. :-)

Just had my first day of school today. A&P first thing in the morning.... I think it should be ok. I can't get my book until a week from tomorrow so that makes me nervous.:uhoh21: But i don't think i'll fall too far behind since we don't have to bring our books to class and i can probably find the answers to the objective questions our prof. sent with us on line and stuff. I don't have lab until monday but i'm rather nervous about it. I've never had a lab class before.

Well good luck to everyone.

Shawna,

My classes started last week and they did not have my A&P until friday.....

I am also in A & P 1, this semester..we just had our first exam on Wed, my classes are Monday and Wed, lecture and lab in the same class. Good luck to everyone this semester..:nuke:

I took my first quiz in A&P Lab...I got a solid B. We will have a quiz every Friday and I will get an A on the next one!!!!

Congrats unterpleichfeld !!

I think a B is very good!

I had my first quiz in lab wed. I got a 100 :) I have a paper to do (not bad, just 2 pages). I'm worried about the test (for lecture) sep 19. He says its always people's lowest (like 30's/40's). I'm going to be studying like crazy.

oh this is great! what a good idea to start a club for a&p newbies! i finished biology last spring, took dosage calculations in summer and now doing the a&pi and microbiology this fall :uhoh21: . a bit intimidating because of my age and lack of experience in the hard sciences-i really need to look at the book/notes every day or i'm terrified i'll do poorly. but-this website is fantastic and so nice to see there are others out there in the same situation-thanks!!

I'm taking ANP1 as well. Saturday from 8-12pm. Actually works out really well for me. I'd hate to take it twice a week, lol.

Great job coonkine!

I have my 2nd quiz in lecture today. We are studying the chemistry part. Ick. It's not hard for me as I just had chemistry but it's just BOR-ING! :yawn:

Well, i just took my first quiz today in lecture, got an A, only 1 question wrong. I think thats ok, but it was a stupid mistake to make and i should have read it correctly and gotten it right. :rolleyes: oh well, I would just rather flat out not know the answer then to miss it because of a stupid reading error.

I also had my first lab today...it was pretty cool. We started right off with fetal pig dissection. It was really neat and i totally learned a whole lot more from it now then when we dissected in high school bio. I had a ton of fun in lab.

I hear you about the borring chemestry part...we are supposed to start that on wednesday in lecture.

One thing that i have learned that has really helped me study is to sit up front and tape the lectures. I have a 40 minute drive home and i listen to them on the way to and from school.

Shawna

Yes, I do sit up front AND tape it.

I got one wrong on my quiz today. Yes, that's good but dang it!! I got it wrong over something stupid too! HAHA I hate that when I see a few words and think "Oh, I know that!" and put an answer down and what happens is that I don't fully read the question and I got it wrong because she switched one word in it. Grrr My stupidity though. Taught me to slow down and read the questions fully though.
