    I'm back in school (college) after being out of high school for over 30 years. I'm new to the whole idea of taking classes, and this class was assigned to me as an online class. I'm struggling to make sense of it all and just learned more in the last 10 minutes than I did when I studied for hours by myself using the book. thank you!

    I'm only 11 and know for sure I want to major in medicine. This is a great start. I may be early but that just means more time to study.

    This was an excellent introduction to medical terminology. It doesn't seem to be a difficult subject to get your head around once you know what the individual parts mean. Made me smile a few times as well as you added your personality. Much appreciated, thank you!

    I have not done all of these words but I think I’ll study these prefixes and suffixes. My similar study pattern has helped me identify words quickly. What I also do is study one section at the time and not mix modules back and forth. I’m starting college soon and I know it’s not easy, but I’m not afraid to give It my all.
