Introduction to Medical Terminology  This is your ticket to memorizing less...by memorizing all of this.  Listen, I get it. Memorizing sucks. Just remember that Knowt is your friend. I also recommend listing the word, the definition, and creating a little doodle.  Now that I've started working in the hospital, I can say that my med term class has come in handy.

Public Speaking This course is a nightmare for people with anxiety and stage-fright, but it can be a productive nightmare if you (and your meds) allow it to be.  Speeches are, unfortunately, part of life. Wedding speeches, informal holiday speeches, academic speeches, workforce presentations...it's horrendous, really.  I took this as part of my associates degree, and it not only got me out of a performance credit at my four-year university, but it also gave me the ability to speak to a group larger than five people without blacking out. The professor I had was incredible. Timothy Wommack, I miss your class every day, despite the psychological torture.  Obviously, for a speech class, there's only so much to be gleaned from the notes, but here they are:  Unit 1 Chapter 1 & Preface Chapter 2 Chapters 6 & 7   Unit 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 9 Unit 3 Chapter 10 Chapter 12 Unit 4 Chapter 9 & 8 Chapter 13

  Studying For Real Life People As a broke CNA and a mother of a rambunctious toddler, I've done my absolute best to maximize my time and minimize my costs to study for this godforsaken test. This is what I did as someone with not a ton of time nor energy.  Overview of the Graduate Record Examination's Structure To start any conversation about the GRE, we have to start with the fact that it is an adaptive test. Think of it like a video game. Imagine that Level 1 is the easiest, and Level 2 is the most difficult. The first section you'll do will be a mix of Level 3-4 problems with some Level 2 and Level 5 problems mixed in. The test will see how you do with problems, and it takes into account the levels of said problems. Level 5 questions are harder, but they unlock better score bonuses. Level 1 questions are easier, but they have no bonuses.  Note that the GRE was updated September 22, 2023. The old version was longer, had more sections, and included breaks. image sourced...

Biochemistry (CHEM314) Biochemistry is when chemistry finally meets organic life—even organic chemistry is more about memorizing reactions than understanding the biological processes that work together to create a living thing.  Make no mistake; biochemistry is not easier than organic chemistry. It is inevitable that you will memorize every amino acid, the biological process of breaking down sugar into energy, storing energy, and several other metabolic processes. However, for students that have issues memorizing a great volume of small factoids that don't seem to fit together, this kind of study will be a tad easier.  The trick is to use the big picture.  This class was taught by Dr. Isabelle Taylor during 2023's spring semester.  Course Content  Textbook  Biochemistry: The Molecular Basis of Life , 7th Edition   Week 1: Water & Noncovalent Bonds, Part I " What is Biochemistry?
