It was great,learned a lot and prepared for me for college.
It was great,learned a lot and prepared for me for college.
This was a fantastic course! I really enjoyed the content of the textbook (I rented it from Amazon but I wish I was actually keeping it!). The review activities in the book were very helpful. I had taken Anatomy and Physiology 1 prior to this course, so some of the things were familiar to me. The majority of the course is just understanding what word is represented by the latin or greek form--it's surprisingly easy since it's all very logical and many of the root words are things that we use in our everyday vocabulary. Overall, a very enjoyable course!
I like the idea you can study and take the course at your own pace. The material is easy to follow.

Reasonably well designed course. I felt some of the review exercises were a little diffuse, focusing on general healthcare knowledge rather than medical terminology. I supplemented my coursework with independent resources/texts. I wonder if I'd have been as successful using only the course materials provided.

Very in-depth course which teaches much more than medical terminology. It explains basic anatomy, body directions, abbreviations, etc.
really good
Great course!
It was a very direct course. No secrets. But the term "creatinine" and "urea" at the tests should be considered to be reviewed. Also the " jumble" section, it takes too long to manage the letters, maybe a quicker way to make it happen when you already know the answer. Otherwise, the course was great.
The Medical Terminology course was self paced. I liked the fact that I could study at my own pace, when I had time.
Very simple and liked the self paced portion of this class.
This course was pretty simple.
This class was perfect for me! I could complete the lessons and quizzes on my own time. Very easy to understand and follow along with the book! Highly recommend this for anyone looking to further their education!!
This course is teaches you the basic medical terms used in the field everyday.
Videos are well detailed and helpful
