Guys, desperately struggling to get through an essential A&P course that I need to pass.....

Tried all sorts of learning techniques but its just not sinking in.....

Anyone know of any podcasts etc that may be avilable online?

Cheers in advance:beer:

  • Kinda depends on how detailed the A+P needs to be.

    I mean, if it is at say GCSE level, there should be loads of stuff out there, try BBC bytesize, if you are talking about Physician level, maybe not quite so much.
  • When I was doing my Nurse training I found the Physiology Colouring Book very helpful. It explains everything and you do literally "colour-in" the diagrams which does help you to remember. The author is Wynn Kapit. Robert Macey and Esmail Meisami, and there is a seperate Anatomy title. Cost was about £10 in 1996 though, but you may pick one up at a secondhand bookstore or Amazon or photocopy pages from a friend (maybe club together if there are several of you). HTH

    Just remebered, The Nursing Times has a free poster this week, ? anatomical.

    Not even remotely free but the A&P book by Martini is brilliant - it comes with CD ROM stuff and there's online material etc. It's about £40 but well worth it. I haven't done any A&P since school (about 10 years ago now - eek!) but I find it so helpful in my midwifery course.

    They have some good acronyms for body systems, used it a lot when doing ambulance training.

    Good luck!!!
