By far the above two were my worst two sections for bio, does anyone have any good video or illustrative resources for memorizing or better understanding them?
 
For the endocrine system, it might be hard to find illustrative pictures to memorize things. You just need to understand that the endocrine system involves communication between cells in a slow, indirect, and nonspecific way. This just implies that hormones pass through the blood and circulate through most of the body, affecting many types of cells. Contrast this to chemical synapse (nervous system) and electrical synapse (cardiac cells, for example) which are fast, direct, and specific. Other than that, the big thing is to know all of the important hormones, their targets, effects, and regulation. Have you tried flashcards?
 
This is a strong bump I know these are my two troublesome systems as well. I'm about to just go brute force into studying them but anyone with more tips on studying them feel free to chime in.
