I'm starting my pre-req's for Watts in January 2016, and I was wondering what I should be studying before I start?
Are there any special A&P books or things that I need to get to study. I know that's going to be one of the hardest courses and I want to make sure that I'm prepared!
Any study or preparation tips would be greatly appreciated! :]

I got the Barron's EZ Anatomy and Physiology. It helped a lot; I ended up getting a 98 in the course. All the courses are pretty easy, but I did hear that my classmates had difficulty with the sociology course.

Can't wait to meet you two in January!
Sorry guys--I'm just seeing these. I didn't get the emails for some reason.

Hi All,
I'm starting pre-reqs at Watts in 1/2016 as well. I found a free online A&P course through the public library! I'm hoping this will give me a lead. Looking forward to meeting fellow cohorts!
What is the A&P online course, if you don't mind?
That's the one course I'm super nervous about!
BrittyyKittyy,
For Durham Co residents w/ a library card, you can access the online classes (aka Gale Courses) via the link below. You will be asked to sign up (email,password, & library card # req'd). Let me know if this helps! Classes start Nov 11 2015 so if interested check it out ASAP.

So excited for you! Congrats. A&P wasn't nearly as hard as I thought it was going to be. I got an A in the class and I would not consider myself a great student. You can get the book early and start reading it but really it isn't necessary. The hardest part of the pre-req's was writing papers for the other classes.
