Hi guys,

I just completed A&P I last week (got my grade of a B+ today:yeah:) and will be starting A&P II on Monday. Just curious..will A&P II be harder than A&P I?

Also note: I took A&P I during Spring semester..but will be taking A&P II during a 7 week summer session..I know that will definitely affect how the class will be viewed.

Interested in all opinions..thanks!

Keep up the good work!! :up:

Ahh! You're so lucky! I'm taking A&P II starting July 7th, but it's a 5-week course! I am SO nervous!!! Good luck, though!!!! :specs:

Good luck ! And how is your friend doing ? I believe you'll get that A !

I AM going to get that A!!!!:yeah: The professor told me and my friend that we both have A averages and don't need to take the last exam on Thursday! It's on the Endocrine and Reproductive systems. But, we're going to take it just for the heck of it. Even if we fail (which we won't..lol), the lowest grade gets dropped.

Thanks all for your help and encouragement these past 6 weeks!:nuke:

I'm resurrecting this thread...

I definitely think A&P II is easier! I'm taking it as a 6 week summer course online, and I still find it easier than I found A&P I either of the semesters I took it on campus!

Maybe it's because the material is way more interesting...but I don't actually think that's it. A lot of it, I think, is that the textbook I'm using for this class is a much better textbook! It's actually readable and understandable rather than this dense thing filled with information that you can't really make sense of!

AP II is more theory. It was harder to me.

II is easier. More interesting IMO, and by the time you're taking II you know what to expect as far as how much study you need to put in.

I got A's in both, but I struggled in part I, mostly because my teacher was insane! I ended up breaking out in acne because she decided to make a hard classs even harder. For II I had over 100% the entire semester.
