I found A&P hard at first.  A friend of mine took the class before me and told me about 2 things that really helped make it alittle more fun if that is possible. LOL  I used an A&P coloring book and flash cards. you can get them at barnes and nobles.  The coloring books give you phonics to help things easy to remember.  As for all the bones and muscles they make these laminated pictures and on one side they are all labeled and the other is fill in the blank.  By the end of A&P I was able to label them all without looking. :)  Good luck I hope that these help.

Well I tell you what I was really scared of A&P. I took a lot of science classes before because I was pre-med at first and I was stuyding and studying and did I say studying and barely got a B- in those classes.  So I calmed down and decided hey I don't want to be a doctor and changed my major (a long story).  So when I went  back to school for my 2nd degree (I am still in school) for nursing I thought about those science classes and got scared again.  I calmed down and this is what I did.   


I bought a a study book called A&P the Easy Way, an A&P coloring book, and read the text book and those worked very well. When I read the text book I would read over it twice and if I did not understand something then I would supplement with the study guide.   


The great news is I got an A+ in both classes.  I did so well that I would mess up the curve in the class because I was getting 100% and scores in the high 90's on the tests.  So I hope this works for you.

My best advice is to study and don't wait until the last minute! Study alittle bit at a time and review it but if you feel ovewhelmed take a break because you will get really burned out, and fast! Here are some web sites that helped me!


There is a really good website called webanatomy here is the web link http://msjensen.cehd.umn.edu/webanatomy/

This site has helped me a ton just finished the class with a high B  Here is another one that is for the book we are using http://highered.mcgraw-hill.com/classware/infoCenter.do?isbn=0072875062 at the top of the page click the part that says resources and then click on the different chapters. The labeling exercises help alot! Let me know if this helps you at all and if you have any questions!
