Thank you for the reply. I have seen some of those videos are they are very helpful. I guess a lot of my trouble is the retention part. I read the lengthy chapters and take notes both in the book and from lecture notes, and they just seem to slip away from me--or when the test comes around, it's gone in a poof. Maybe it's test anxiety or maybe I need to learn how to take notes differently.

I took Anatomy and Physiology before and got a 78% and that wasn't good enough for a lot of the schools in WA. The practicals were easier for me because I could visualize things and it was mostly memorization, but the dense lecture chapters and exams are where I had trouble. Do you guys have any tips on retaining information in the chapters and getting higher scores on the exam? The lecture notes are only very brief. Anything helps, thanks!
