Because I heard that some people do really well on lecture but fail lab. For people who have taken anatomy how did you remember everything?

I think those of us who have taken A&P warned you that the memorization was going to be HUGE.  I also remember suggesting you finish biology and chemistry and medical terminology FIRST.  
I realize you can do what you want, but don't underestimate how important it is to get an A in this class for nursing school admissions, even if that means dropping the rest of your schedule.  There's also A&P II which will be just as hard.  A&P is no joke, it's the reason most people don't get into nursing school.  If you're open to advice, clear your social life, drop classes you can save for later, and FOCUS on nothing but this.  

Also, The Great Courses has a fantastic A&P course online that saved my butt.  Seriously, it's worth looking at.

 Thanks Ms.Coookderosa , It's though but I have made 91 on lecture and I'm awaiting my lab grade. I will also look into these courses too.
