Anatomy website

[COYspurs]

Does anyone have a good website recommendation for brushing up on anatomy and physiology?
I'm off to med school this Fall so I was just looking for a website I can use to refresh my anatomy knowledge. Wikipedia doesn't count...haha

Thanks

The allo student sticky has a ton of resources including plenty of anatomy if studying before school starts is your thing.

Bad idea.....you'll have plenty of time to study once you get there. You're better of enjoying your free time. I promise what studying you do now will make almost no difference once you arrive....

Not necessarily!

As long as you are studying the correct way and not cramming the material in your brain w/o reinforcing it , you can definitely ease the transition of the material into long term memory. Not to mention, I have done excessive research on the matter in psych/neuro.

The above poster is correct if you spend a week on the material and then do not come back to it until med school starts.

What you need to do is study pretty hard whatever subject you choose for a couple weeks at the start of the summer b4 med school (or earlier if you have the time). Then sit down one day each week for a good 2 hours and review the material. You need a good 10 weeks of this 1 day/2hour review for the material to transition from short to long term memory. The research is out there, its proven!!


On top of that you will again be reinforcing the material in medical school, thus cementing the material in your neurons.


People usually fail to review bc they think they really know the material. You must review even if you think you know 100% of the material. You are building more connections in your brain whether you realize or not and increasing neuron density. Lastly try to incorporate as many senses as possible when reviewing.


More power to you if you have the will power to study b4 school starts!! Just make sure your not wasting your time
