I study for an exam and very little of the material is on the actual test
MY A+P professsor last semester was likethat he didn't give study guides at all !!!! and his tests were nothing like his notes that he gave us. i ended up with a D in the class. i am now taking a human biology class not as intense as A+P is. and it qualifies you for LPN school so thats the route i'm gonna take. good luck hope it changes for u:) nicole

failing A+P what to do?????????
i study alot do flash cards and everything it's just when i test i go blank and get everything jumbled i honestly think i over study. i use the website and do the quizzes and get 80's and up so i just don't get what i'm doing wrong. i have a bad professor too. he doesn't give study guides at all in his words "they aren't necessary" so he doesn't do them. this makes it harder to study for me without a study guide. i have missed two labs due to my kids being sick but i tried to keep upwith the material so i would not get behind. well i thought i was doing good in lab so it would balance out? iwas wrong. i just don't want to keep going like this i studied 2 hrs tonight already and i am still not even halfway finished with one chapter i'm just so frustrated!!!! nicole

Need Advice sooo depressed!!
i feel the same way i took A+P a while ago and only came out with a c- so i am now taking it over this semester again. i am still overwhelmed trying to study and get the stuff down. i am also a single mommy with two kids 6 and 3. so it's even harder trying to study and prioritize my time. but i know i can do this i am only taking one other class this time so i can concentrate on the A+P. i am finding abnormal psych to be pretty easy so i don't have to study as much for it as i do the A+P. my advice hang in there we all can do this no matter what :) NICOLE

boards need to regulate MA's
i am an MA in the state of mass. as an MA you do alot of things in the scope of practice. it is really up to each dr you work for, what they deem you responsible for. i myself will not take on any tasks i am not 100% comfortable with. i can do ekg's however i am not comfortable reading them, seeing as they can be off at times. this is why i prefer to not do them. iam now in my 3rd semester of pre reqs for nursing. nicole
