Doing A&P in September

Hi
Thought I'd reply as I've just finished my A & P course and am waiting for results. I too was very worried about doing the course and had already put it off twice. I'm not that confident and was worried about the amount of work.
However, it was the best thing I ever done and I only wish I'd done it sooner.
I won't lie about the amount of work as there is alot to cover. If you make sure you study the work you are given each week before you start on the next section you will be fine. Otherwise it can mount up and you will get confused.
One book I found really helpful was
Anatomy and Physiology for Holistic Therapists by Francesca Gould priced about £12.99
I couldn't have done without this as the author makes each syllabus clear and simplified to understand with tips on learning.
There is also a good website - ivyroseholistic.co.uk which has a link for human body/anatomy which I found helpful.
Which course are you doing, is it ITEC? That's what I done so if you need any help just ask and I'll keep in touch.
Good luck with the course and don't worry. You can bet that everyone else is feeling the same as you. Plus side is that you'll make some good friends too.

Anatomy and Physiology for Holisitc Therapists is a fantastic book. It's really easy to understand and explains things really clearly. Definately helped me with my A&P.

Thank you ilovecrystals and Nefra. I am doing the A&P (ITEC) on Saturdays, 10-5 pm, one Saturday in every month - how am I going to learn all the curriculum with only that amount of teaching.

Deep breaths in!

I start this Saturday, will let you know how I get on, hopefully my brain won't explode.

I had the first lesson yesterday, we only do one Saturday in every month, two whole chapters, so by next month I will have to know all about the cells and the skin.

Gosh, it's a stack of work so I can see I am permanently going to have my head stuck in a book.
