  1. A&P Lecture vs. Lab

    Last semester, I thought the tests were about the same throughout the course. It was actually the ones in the middle that I did the best on. But that's besides the point. My class this semester...
  2. A&P Lecture vs. Lab

    No way am I skipping the retreat! As I've stated before, I go to a 4 year college with a direct entry program. As long as you get a C in your prereqs in the first year, you move onto nursing in the...
  3. A&P Lecture vs. Lab

    Yeah...this is my ONLY YEAR (out of my 4 in college) that I'll be able to have even a relatively normal college life. My nursing program is the only one like it in the country, and basically, after...
  4. Lpn school now or prerequisite courses??

    I also think you should do the prereqs. Look for schools with the least...at my school, the only prereqs are A&P (no bio or chem prereqs for that), soc, psych, and English...and this is only for...
  5. A&P Lecture vs. Lab

    It isn't early in the term...we're already halfway through the semester! In my class, there are 4 lecture exams, and 3 lab practicals. Our second lecture exam (the one on Friday) was supposed to be on...
  6. How to make A&P reading less boring

    My prof does test straight from lecture. She has said on various occasions that if she didn't mention it in lecture, then we won't best tested on
  7. How to make A&P reading less boring

    So...I know that I need to read the textbook...but it's so dang boring! I'm very much an auditory learner, so unless I'm reading a novel, I have a lot of trouble paying attention. Reading out loud...
  8. How to make A&P reading less boring

    So what I've found to be useful after trying many of the suggestions that I've gotten here and other places is to read and make a study guide with multiple colors. I generally do about 5 pages at a...
  9. A&P 1 Spring 2010

    I just got Mosby's Anatomy&Physiology Study and Review Cards, and I love them! The pictures are great, they contain a lot of information, and every card has a review
  10. How to make A&P reading less boring

    Remilekun - I'm not interested in recording the lecture. I'm interested in reading the textbook as my OP stated. Lecture is great and all, but there's no way that I would listen to it again for a...
  11. How to make A&P reading less boring

    Thanks guys. But...I really need to read my textbook...not listen to other lectures or whatever, or even my own prof's lectures. Lectures don't cover everything...and in order to understand what it in...
  12. Taking A&P while in nursing school... how crazy hard is it?

    It's done at many schools. I personally cannot imagine doing it, but people obviously make it
  13. Nursing school Vs. Nursing Prereqs

    Memorization is not my strong suit...application definitely is...so I'm hoping NS will be easier for me than the prereqs! I'll let you know 'round
  14. Order/Combination of classes

    I would do A&P with Sociology and Chem with
  15. Repeated A&P course for NV programs?

    At my school, if you withdraw from a course, it still counts as you taking it. For example, last semester, I withdrew from A&P I and I am retaking it this semester. If I don't pass, I am no longer...
  16. Would any of these classes help me get a job?

    Well this summer, I won't be doing anything particular because I haven't had any nursing classes yet...so it'll either be a hospital aide, or some sort of aide in a nursing home. My long term goal is...
  17. I just got a 59% on my first Anatomy Exam....

    I said maybe not material-wise...please read before
  18. I just got a 59% on my first Anatomy Exam....

    Not in my experience! Last semester, the third test I believe was the easiest BY FAR! And this semester, the first test was pretty hard. Once you figure out the style of the professor and how they...
  19. Who's starting (or hoping to start) this fall?

    Last year, there were about 360 applicants for 40 spots in my program (but they actually accepted 45 rather than the 40). This year, there are even more applicants for roughly the same number of...
  20. best coloring book for A&P?

    I also have the Kaplan book and I love it! I looked at many others, but this is the one I liked the
  21. Who's starting (or hoping to start) this fall?

    I am! I'm in a direct entry program, so this year (my first of college), I'm getting all my prereqs out of the way, and I start nursing classes and clinicals in the
  22. I just got a 59% on my first Anatomy Exam....

    I disagree about reading before lecture...I find it more helpful to read after. But really, when you read isn't as important is that you do in fact
  23. A&P 1 Spring 2010

    At my school, you can't take A&P more than twice. If you don't pass it your second time around, you're done with the nursing program. I'm lucky that I got a better professor this semester than...

    We use cats and models. No cadavers for
  25. A&P 1 Spring 2010

    We just started the skeletal system in lecture today. We're doing the appendicular skeleton, muscles and something else in
