What is your best advice for preparing for A&P I?
Flashcards! Quizlet.com is good if you have a hard time keeping up with paper. Don't just write definitions, turn your notes into flash cards. And then for each subject (e.g., the blood flow of the heart) say it out loud and explain it to yourself or someone else. For lab, make a list of the terms, find them on yourself, and then eliminate them as you learn them. Also, if your professor doesnt offer them already, take pictures of the models. Put them in sheet protectors, get a dry erase marker and label away! Visible body.com is awesome too, you have to pay for a subscription but it is worth it. Good luck, I know you can do it. :)
