Hey guys,
I just discovered this forum so I figured I'd give it try. I am currently a freshman soon to be sophomore, whose majoring in Kinesiology in hopes to move on to graduate school and become and PT. I have little experience with the field or what actually a physical therapist does. I chose this major because health science interests me and I really enjoy helping people. This sounds cliche but helping other people is what makes me happy. So the fall semester of 2013 is finally coming to an end and this is my second time taking A&P 1. I'm really struggling with learning how to memorize all of the material of the physiology portion of the class. Anatomy labs and practicals I do well in however, lecture which consists of physiology does not go well with me. I spend hours upon hours studying and I just don't retain the information when it comes to taking the test. Is it really dentrimental to DPT school to have physiology aced? I have no idea what else to do. I don't want this one class that is giving me a problem to make me give up on something I feel like I would be good at. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
