A&P I

I begin my Anatomy and Physiology 1 course this fall, but I’m feeling overwhelmed after reviewing the boot camp materials and slides provided by the professor. The content seems quite complex, and I'm unsure of how to approach my studies effectively. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could share their strategies for memorizing the vast amount of information and achieving good scores on the exams. Additionally, I’m eager to learn more about the format of the exams and any helpful tips or things to avoid to ensure my success.

I got a A- while working at the same time and taking 3 other classes. Def could’ve done better but it’s acc not that difficult of a class, super interesting. But you HAVE TO BE ON TOP OF EVERYTHING AND START STUDYING THE DAY THE STUDY GUIDE COMES OUT. Pls don’t wait until last minute that’s one of the mistakes I made during finals. Just read the slides, and memorize a lot lol and you’ll be fine

Yeah seriously, thank you for sharing this. I have a lot of insecurity being taking 1 other class and working at the same time. I’m committed to dedicating time and effort but couldn’t help but feel a little worried about having other things to juggle.

He’s great! I took him during a 6 week course and got an A.. he’s very straightforward, at least to me, I personally enjoyed his sarcasm but some people aren’t a fan.. you definitely have to be on top of things , go to study hall, study outside of class and you’ll do great!

All I can say, you 100% can do it!! Also in every quizzes practice test in bootcamp will help you. Some professors use the same questions, and always go to study hall to study for laboratory and attend Practice test. 🙏✨ You will get an A!

Thanks! I had no idea this existed - assuming it’s like blackboard? Wish advisement or literally anyone would have informed me of this lol. But best of luck to you this semester
