    A&P 1 Spring 2012 Check-in

    Take a break. Seriously. You can get over-saturated and blank out in your hour of need. Sometimes a reboot or recharge does more good than trying to stuff even more info in. Don't push yourself too...

    Flashcards question

    Flashcards question

    Thanks to both of you! I've been using the digital flashcards on my phone, but I'm also hand-writing physical ones to use. I suppose over time I'll be able to figure out which works better (or maybe...

    Starting A&P course tomorrow
