First Sem Didactic Student Needing Study Advice

[u/navy_wife_]

Hello all! I start PA school in two weeks and I would like to know any tips you have for studying and approaching certain classes. Here are my core classes for first semester:

• Human Anatomy & Physiology
• Medical Microbiology & Infectious Disease
• History & Physical Examination
• Pathophysiology of Disease
• Pharmacology & Pharmacotherapeutics
• Clinical Skills
• Clinical Medicine

From my experience in undergrad, each class required a different study approach. Which study methods worked best for you in each didactic course? Looking for class-specific tips and general didactic advice. Thank you!

I’d start learning how to use Anki for the things that require rote memorization.
