Ok, so it's more than a little humiliating for me to write this on here, but after 2 exams, 50% of our final grade has been determined, and I am failing gross anatomy. Not marginal passing, not making a 'D'. Failing, with a big fat 'F'. Now, the situation isn't intractable, as I can still pass IF i make an 80 or better on the next exam and the final.
My reason for posting this is that I have no idea how to do well in this class. I am doing very well in all my other classes, but I can't seem to get anatomy. I am guilty of studying the other classes more due to my hatred of gross, so of course I recognize that I will have to devote much, much more time to it from here on out. My question is what exactly should I do with that time? Stare at the Netter/Rohen? Poke around in bodies as if I know where anything is? Read something? Do questions from the BRS?
I am desperate to pass this class, and I'll probably have to withdraw from school if I don't. As such, I would be most grateful for any study methods which have worked for people in the past. Gross is the one class that I don't really feel like I have a method in, I follow certain regimes in all my other classes and that seems to be working well, but I am totally lost as to how to study effectively for this class. 🙁
