Study materials for A&P and Micro exams

For all of you EC students/graduates who took A&P and Micro through EC, what did you use to study?? There are a few textbooks to choose from in the Excelsior bookstore and they are very expensive. I purchased SG101 CD-roms for both already, and I have had alot of success with those for my first two exams, but I need something else too.

Which textbooks/cliff notes/supplemental study material is helpful for these courses?? Thanks in advance :-)

Look for materials in libraries that you can use for free.

I used SG101 the most. I also used the Anatomy and Physiology for Dummies book (very good, very simple) and Standard Deviants Anatomy DVD (fun, visual way to learn - lots of funny mnemonics). I usually buy used on Amazon and then resell once I'm finished. So, the investment is not that much. Maybe a few dollars lost on shipping charges? Not bad & all of these really, really helped. I do have an older edition of the textbook, but hardly used it. I got an A on the exam in October.
