54 yrs old and after raising my 5 children as a widow & only parent I enrolled in college to get my RN nursing degree. I have not been in school since 1988 so needless to say, I am definitely nervous about my ability to master this course. Glad I found your page, liked, subscribed, and have notifications on. 🤗 THANK YOU!!!
1st year, Pre-med student here! Just found your page! So glad. Attempting to get ahead of my studies. I am not an overly smart student. However, I have a great memory, so your tips and tricks are definitely helping me feel more secure and confident pre medical school. Thank you so much!
Science is something I'm very interested in. I learned anatomy very quickly right before an exam the next day. Is easy to me because I'm extremely interested in human anatomy and physiology. I used to read anatomy books before I even pursued a career in medicine. So when I took the class it was nothing. I received A's in my anatomy classes. Now I'm pursuing the physician assistant path. I just love challenging subjects. 😊 The key for everyone is to enjoy the material and believe that it's easy. Your mind is quite powerful.
Just finished a cardiovascular physiology quiz before watching this ... I had gone through a huge bank of practice questions and flashcards. Repetition and consistency really do help!
human anatomy is by far the hardest class I have ever taken. It is so much memorization and takes more out of my mental health than moving 300 miles away from home at 17 years old! I am saying this in past tense but I am in my first semester of freshman year at CSULA haha!
I am in Australia and my mental health is suffering trying to get through it with 2 children, business to run full time plus I’m pregnant. I’m happy to see I’m not the only one 😊
Currently taking anatomy in my undergrad, sadly it’s all online but I wish it was on campus because our school has a virtual dissection table in the lab! But loved this video! Hope you’re doing well Dr. Cellini!
I am studying my undergraduate degree at the moment and planning on doing medicine next year. In my current anatomy units I don't use any text books because everything is online. Dr Cellini I enjoy watching your videos very inspiring.
1. Which textbook is best for your learning style? - Research and figure out which descriptions and pics you like best 2. Get helpful resources that suit you Gray’s anatomy textbook for dissecting, netter’s Flashcards, kenhub, etc 3. Find a study partner - Study the model of the actual body part - Quiz each other - Draw a model of the anatomy with labels and study that (use fun mnemonics) 4. DRILL IT INTO YOUR HEAD - Study nonstop - Repetition and consistency - practice, Practice, PRACTICE *These are my personal notes for this video, don’t mind this, and the vid has a much better explanation
Definitely appreciate this content! I still prefer the old school method (textbooks, atlas, etc.) of studying all this material, the physical flashcards was a good suggestion too. A lot of people like digital flashcards these days, but it's just not my style as you said it has a tendency to present information in fragmented ways. I was so happy to hear how drawing has helped you too! I used to draw them for fun, but never thought I could actually use it to help me memorize structures. Thanks!!
Same here. I have no retention reading it digitally. I need a hard copy of the subject matter and write notes. And that’s very effective and this is what I impart to my students. I love cadaver dissection, best experience than plastic and digital models nowadays.
first year med student who is not study in his country and actually study abroad, and when i compare your way of studying anatomy with mine I found many many common points doctor. (Except drawing diagrams which if I want to do it for all , it takes much time...) .I also use the same books as you did but unfortunately due to worse economic situation of mine I had to print the Gray's Anatomy for instance instead of ordering on Amazon. Also unfortunately at the university where I study, I don't have any access to any cadavers or human body to see what is there and memorize better and I have to spend much time finding good videos which are showing me those parts ,on the net ,,, but lastly you're a doctor who is one of my role models in this way and I'm tryna and work as hard as I can to be a guy like you when I'm gonna wear that white coat :))) . thank you so much for these USEFUL videos and info.
I’m a first year med school student and you’re totally right: textbooks and atlases are way better. Personally I bought the Sobotta Atlases from Elsevier and it’s top tier, also it is what’s recommended by the professors and university. It’s so awesome that you could’ve gone anytime to see cadavers because here we can only enter during courses. Also drawing can definitely make the learning process easier! Once you visualise something in the human body, you can’t forget it. Consistency is key. Thank you for the video :)
I'm a PA student, came across this video while browsing for advice on how students best learn anatomy as I will be a TA this semester for the new class. I completely resonate with everything you said about how you studied and what resources you use, the Thieme atlas is a LIFE SAVER for me and I prefer it any day over netter. Also, some of us still use textbooks and very much prefer them! Thank you for the helpful advice!
I wish we were aloud cadaver classes in nursing. Back then I didn't know anyone with a computer. It was 3 yrs of thick text books. I bought mine used as I loved highliting.. I didnt like flashcards pre made I did my own.i love how u share learning to pre med, med students and residents. Plus people like me who just love learning anything medical! Your awesome! Don't ever leave us.❤💯🙏🙏
I have an anatomy colouring book. It helps me remember by studying physiology at the same time. That way I can visualise the part and system working in the body, not working or malfunctioning.
I am a visual learner as well. Thank you doctor for caring about your patients. I love repetition as well. This is the only way it will stay in your brain.👍👍
I have the Thieme Atlas as well, and I chose it over the Netter because its diagrams were more modern and seemed more realistic. The colors are amazing and it covers pretty much the same sections as Netter. At the end of the day, they all boil down to the same, as you said!
I can't believe that you're just allowed to walk into the cadaver lab by yourself in the US, that makes everything so much easier, here in Poland we were only allowed to study from these bodies during class so like around 60-90 minutes twice a week
I've stuck with digital textbooks throughout med school (2014-18) and beginnings of surgical training. Using that Ctrl+F for Netter's and Instant Anatomy (a little gem written by my anatomy lecturer at Cambridge) is so much more efficient than using paper! Controversially I didn't get much out of whole body dissections...
The gross anatomy lab is wasted on first year students. It has a more meaningful use for third and 4th year students going through their surgical rotations.
Ever since the pandemic I've utilized ebooks but personally I would stick to actual, physical books lmao. It's easier to get from the shelf and easier on the eyes.
Today was my first day of A&P. I'm really excited. I will definitely see if I can rent those text books. We are using the McGraw Hill Hole's Anatomy and Physiology book.
First time taking Anatomy for my nursing prerequisite I failed because I got C and my program required from C+; I retook and rewrote everything by hand, and one anatomy word I had to write 10 times. I had no clue what I did. I spent time at the Cadaver lab for hours and hours and by the time I was done, I smelled like a cadaver. Sometimes my bottom shirt got soaked by the water from the cadaver tank. I had a hard time with arteries and vessels...I had a hard time with all kinds of muscles.........I repeated and repeated.....I got an A for that class. That was the hardest class I ever took. You struggled with English alone and yet another anatomy language.
Anatomy is one of the easiest classes I ever taken. I think it helps if you're really fascinated in the subject and believe that you can achieve a high score.
ER doc here ! I personally made sure to memorize all the structures in a specific location and when shown that area I know what are the things in that area that I should look for, then does it look like a nerve and artery a vein, etc. PLUS I used to google cadaver images on google and look at a bunch of them. So although I did not have time or desire to go to a real cadaver Iab, I would still have real pictures in my mind. GREAT VIDEO !
I'm in high school and I'm looking into human anatomy related subjects to maybe choose that as my job and I'm really starting to take it seriously, so when I saw this post, I just HAD to watch it!! I trust it'll help me a lot and thank you! (Also, go check out Institute of Human Anatomy, they're great!)
I am an RN and I feel like it would be very beneficial for us to learn anatomy using the cadavers also. Would have made the class so much more applicable.
Sonographer here! I found Play-Doh to be helpful with anatomy, much easier to learn in 3D, with the text books as guides. I found anatomy lab was useful for cross sectional anatomy - our lab had a "person book" up on the wall... You could flip through them a slice at a time, but only in transverse! LoL
Since my classes are online, what I did ( I live in Ohio) I went to our largest med schools, CWRU and OSU. I raided their libraries for a few months. During the Rona' it was a bitch, but it was worth it. I've been studying my ass off and recovering from a TBI on top of it and have needed to find different ways to study. I do the flashcard thing, hand written. I also use my op reports and imaging from my ortho adventures to learn anatomy better. I keep reading, reading and reading. I also find its VERY helpful to read the same topic written by different authors. Its also very helpful I have a job that lets me read for 6 hours out of my shift.

Im in dental school and honestly haven't used a physical textbook in years. There is no such thing as "mandatory texts" that are not just pdfs for us. Back in high school though was a different story!
@@chiedzachogugudza1708 there is a fair amount of both anatomy and physiology but usually not to the extent of medical school? Some dental schools do combine their classes with the medical school. In my first year, we did cadaver dissections and had bell ringer exams, however, I would say there is a much stronger emphasis on head and neck anatomy. For example, we did not go into much detail for the lower extremities but you will need to know the cranial nerves in-depth and all the skull foramina and which structures pass through. Are you thinking about going dental school?
@@choochd yes I am already enrolled but I start February so I've decided to go ahead and start on neck anatomy to avoid too much pressure is that advisable
Dr. Cellini, not to get weird but is there a place where med students buddy up and help each other out? I'm going to school for IONM and would really like an intelligent friend to learn from. My school is online, and I have no friends, and my cats grasp the material as much as my family!
Hello Dr. Cellini. Im a 13 year old boy who wants to be an obstetrician when I grow up. Im on the right track, using your studying techniques, getting only A*'s on all my tests! I was just wanting to know if the monitor you had on your wall is affordable, and if you have a place I can go to find one similar. Keep up the great work Doc!
You are right..thieme's atlas is more detailed and specific than the netter's atlas... I also used netter's atlas first but it is little bit difficult to understand ....
My anatomy book was the only one I kept from college also....I’m not sure if it’s because of my interest or for the fact that it was my MOST expensive book and class 😆....I don’t have OCD, but am I the only one who noticed changes on the liquor cabinet? Lol I would like to add that I could never use computers to study but I laugh that my quizlet flash cards are still available online...from 20 years ago and now my 15 yr old uses the same program...lol
Dr Cellini, I did comment earlier about your monitor, but I had another thing to add. What do you connect it to? Because I beleive you have to hook it to a pc or something. Keep up the good work 💘
im preparing myself for sonography school when i get picked. oi alreayd have a anatomy coloring book but i just bought the flashcards and soon buy the books 🎉 thank you for this video ❤
Our oldest grandson is having a hard time using the computer for his science class. He prefers to use paper. I think paper should still be a choice for children, I am an adult who is not crazy about opening and closing apps or even having multiple pages open at the same time. This takes time for some people and could be a problem.
Thanks! Okay, so first I need access to a cadaver. It's gonna be a hard, I have to admit. Not only that, but I must prefer text books instead of using Complete Anatomy, a cheaper software option with 3D models of all the layers of what a human body consists of, explaining each part of the human body with intricate detail with a simple click of a button. Also, don't use flash cards. Or if you use them, use expensive store-bought flash cards made out of cardboard instead of using a free resource such as the Anki flash cards software loaded with anatomy decks. Got it!
I’m in undergrad all of our texts are online, but the library has frank netters medical illustrations collection I grab from time to time for deeper insights thanks !!
Ya I personally almost never use textbooks and if I do I use the electronic version on my tablet or laptop. Most people in my class study off the lecture slides which often contain images from netters
Netter nails the big things and I really appreciate that. Like things you'd likely see during surgery and get pimped on during surgery rotation. Like if the surgeon were to point to a structure in the triangle of Calot and ask you "what is this and where does it go?" If you had memorized Netter's you'd be fine. BUT if the attending REALLY wanted to f*ck you up and ask REAL specific questions about the nitty gritty anatomy, or developmental origins or anatomical variants, Netter won't save you.
I believe there is a saying that 1,000 hours of something makes you a master, you can definitely consider yourself a master! I am About to be a M1 DO student in July, any advice?
I am not in the medical field. I have 3 sisters who are. One is a Radiographer, one is a RN, and one is a OTA. When I tell you I had to help them all through their medical anatomy classes in college, I mean it. (I did not partake in the cadaver courses, obvi.) At 16, 18 and 21, I was right there with them with the flash card drills and doodles. Rote learning is definitely key. I know more about anatomy than I have any right to. Logically, I was well on my way to a medical career as well... I am an Environmental Scientist. Did any of them help me memorize bacterial remediation methods or toxin plume flow calculations? NoOoOoo. Because that's 'boring' and 'these graphs are weird'. Ahem...I'm still a little salty about that. Haha! Seriously though just slam your head into the book enough times. It'll stick.
I’m about to start a Radiology program and Physiology/Anatomy is pretty scary to me. Has anybody gone through a community college level of Physiology/Anatomy? If so, what’s your recommendation as far as studying?
I make a quiz with pictures of the parts of the body for example I make a quiz with scapula. I delete the latin labels of the bone one by one and after every one I save the picture with the other labels with a number for the picture. I number the pictures from highest to lowes number becouse in this way when I start to change the pictures the next one part of the bone appears and I try to guess it before I go to it. This method helps me becose first when you make the quiz you see the word you delete one by one and after you try to say the parts of the bone. P.S Before I make the quiz with the numbered pictures I read the text of my anatomy textbook and after every one part of the bone I search it on the picture which I go to use for making a quiz after reading. I use 3d atlas too but classic is better for me.
Awesome, thank you for the tips, Dr. Cellini! Btw, what are your favorite drinks in the back? The bottles look so fancy! :) They are definitely needed after every semester lol. I feel like an expert is above a master. :)

Just finished a cardiovascular physiology quiz before watching this ... I had gone through a huge bank of practice questions and flashcards. Repetition and consistency really do help!
Couldn’t agree more
I have started my Cardiovascular physiology
In Ken hub?
It's easy for me because it's so fascinating. Think that's what makes passing exams and memorizing it so much better.
So the question is how to find the practice questions
I failed anatomy the first time and now retaking, but since I’m taking it again I am understanding it more and doing better
human anatomy is by far the hardest class I have ever taken. It is so much memorization and takes more out of my mental health than moving 300 miles away from home at 17 years old! I am saying this in past tense but I am in my first semester of freshman year at CSULA haha!

Hey I know lots of time has passed since but I am in a similar position as you. Can you share what you did to help yourself in anatomy and physiology?
Thanks so much. My mom got me a medical textbook for my birthday. I love anatomy and I hope to be an oncologist pediatrician when I’m older!

1. Which textbook is best for your learning style?
- Research and figure out which descriptions and pics you like best
2. Get helpful resources that suit you
Gray’s anatomy textbook for dissecting, netter’s Flashcards, kenhub, etc
3. Find a study partner
- Study the model of the actual body part
- Quiz each other
- Draw a model of the anatomy with labels and study that (use fun mnemonics)
4. DRILL IT INTO YOUR HEAD
- Study nonstop
- Repetition and consistency
- practice, Practice, PRACTICE

What do you recommend for specifically learning head and neck anatomy?
3D4 Medical anatomy atlas is my tool of choice digitally for patient education or person study.
Im in dental school and honestly haven't used a physical textbook in years. There is no such thing as "mandatory texts" that are not just pdfs for us. Back in high school though was a different story!
How much of anatomy do you do in dental school
@@chiedzachogugudza1708 there is a fair amount of both anatomy and physiology but usually not to the extent of medical school? Some dental schools do combine their classes with the medical school. In my first year, we did cadaver dissections and had bell ringer exams, however, I would say there is a much stronger emphasis on head and neck anatomy. For example, we did not go into much detail for the lower extremities but you will need to know the cranial nerves in-depth and all the skull foramina and which structures pass through. Are you thinking about going dental school?
@@choochd yes I am already enrolled but I start February so I've decided to go ahead and start on neck anatomy to avoid too much pressure is that advisable
Lol, the alcohol bottles in the background are funny .. :-D
Dr. Cellini, not to get weird but is there a place where med students buddy up and help each other out? I'm going to school for IONM and would really like an intelligent friend to learn from. My school is online, and I have no friends, and my cats grasp the material as much as my family!
This is the epitome of talking and saying nothing at all at the same time
Hello Dr. Cellini. Im a 13 year old boy who wants to be an obstetrician when I grow up. Im on the right track, using your studying techniques, getting only A*'s on all my tests! I was just wanting to know if the monitor you had on your wall is affordable, and if you have a place I can go to find one similar. Keep up the great work Doc!
It’s not cheap...it’s around $800. It is linked in my desk review video

@@zacharygleisner3894 thanks man! Really helps alot, and specifies on my need of work 🔥🙏❤I love this community
Textbooks is better for me to learn from, or maybe I'm just getting old..Thank you for another video
haha I am the exact same way. Sometimes you just need a textbook in front of you!
@@DrCellini Agree is just better
I learn better from a textbook too! Much better!
Currently in anatomy. Just finished the neuromuscular block. Thanks for the video!
Awesome Dr. Cellini!
Portland Oregon in the house!🌲
You remind me so such of my son who is an
emergency medicine doctor in
Columbia Missouri!

You are just gifted
You are right..thieme's atlas is more detailed and specific than the netter's atlas... I also used netter's atlas first but it is little bit difficult to understand ....
Thank you. Great advice. It's good of you to share your insights and expertise. God bless you!
Anatomy is an all or nothing proportion. For med students, It will either be your favorite class or your most dreaded. There is no in between.
Thank you for the tips! Good luck to anyone taking exams soon!
My anatomy book was the only one I kept from college also....I’m not sure if it’s because of my interest or for the fact that it was my MOST expensive book and class 😆....I don’t have OCD, but am I the only one who noticed changes on the liquor cabinet? Lol I would like to add that I could never use computers to study but I laugh that my quizlet flash cards are still available online...from 20 years ago and now my 15 yr old uses the same program...lol
Dr Cellini, I did comment earlier about your monitor, but I had another thing to add. What do you connect it to? Because I beleive you have to hook it to a pc or something. Keep up the good work 💘
The alcohol in the corner is legendary 🔥
im preparing myself for sonography school when i get picked. oi alreayd have a anatomy coloring book but i just bought the flashcards and soon buy the books 🎉 thank you for this video ❤
Our oldest grandson is having a hard time using the computer for his science class. He prefers to use paper. I think paper should still be a choice for children, I am an adult who is not crazy about opening and closing apps or even having multiple pages open at the same time. This takes time for some people and could be a problem.
If you don't have a cadaver you can frequently use an online model such as Complete Anatomy. (it is paid but really worth it)
I did Psychophysiology in London, UK, years ago and we used Gray's
I'll subscribe because you have that mini bar behind you, and you have the same ambitions as I have.
I have been using Moore:clinically oriented anatomy but it has alot of details for a med student what do you think?
Dr. Cellini do you recommend Essential Anatomy 3D app?
Thanks! Okay, so first I need access to a cadaver. It's gonna be a hard, I have to admit. Not only that, but I must prefer text books instead of using Complete Anatomy, a cheaper software option with 3D models of all the layers of what a human body consists of, explaining each part of the human body with intricate detail with a simple click of a button. Also, don't use flash cards. Or if you use them, use expensive store-bought flash cards made out of cardboard instead of using a free resource such as the Anki flash cards software loaded with anatomy decks. Got it!
I’m in undergrad all of our texts are online, but the library has frank netters medical illustrations collection I grab from time to time for deeper insights thanks !!
Ya I personally almost never use textbooks and if I do I use the electronic version on my tablet or laptop. Most people in my class study off the lecture slides which often contain images from netters
Are you getting a lot of requests to do a collab with the other Dr. Mike aka Varshavski
That alcohol is for internal disinfection purposes😄?
This is fantastic! Super overwhelmed with the spine. Such a smarty pants but you should definitely find your baby.
im in pre-nursing and for A&P the Human Anatomy & Physiology by Elaine. Second week in and omg so much notes haha, i am now studying but got nothing
Actual tips start with the sponsor message at around 5:30, before that is just talk about what textbooks to use and that flash cards don't work.
I’m currently halfway through my nursing program and all of our textbooks are ebooks.
DEFINITELY agree 1000% with the tablet vs textbooks. I HAVE 2 USE A TEXTBOOK AS WELL
great vid! did the alcohol help settle the stress down?
Master is above an expert. And you are a master ;-)
Netter nails the big things and I really appreciate that. Like things you'd likely see during surgery and get pimped on during surgery rotation. Like if the surgeon were to point to a structure in the triangle of Calot and ask you "what is this and where does it go?" If you had memorized Netter's you'd be fine. BUT if the attending REALLY wanted to f*ck you up and ask REAL specific questions about the nitty gritty anatomy, or developmental origins or anatomical variants, Netter won't save you.
I believe there is a saying that 1,000 hours of something makes you a master, you can definitely consider yourself a master! I am About to be a M1 DO student in July, any advice?
Is ken hub begginer friendly? I need to take human antomy a &p
I am not in the medical field. I have 3 sisters who are. One is a Radiographer, one is a RN, and one is a OTA. When I tell you I had to help them all through their medical anatomy classes in college, I mean it. (I did not partake in the cadaver courses, obvi.) At 16, 18 and 21, I was right there with them with the flash card drills and doodles. Rote learning is definitely key. I know more about anatomy than I have any right to. Logically, I was well on my way to a medical career as well... I am an Environmental Scientist. Did any of them help me memorize bacterial remediation methods or toxin plume flow calculations? NoOoOoo. Because that's 'boring' and 'these graphs are weird'. Ahem...I'm still a little salty about that. Haha! Seriously though just slam your head into the book enough times. It'll stick.
I’m about to start a Radiology program and Physiology/Anatomy is pretty scary to me. Has anybody gone through a community college level of Physiology/Anatomy? If so, what’s your recommendation as far as studying?
Lol love the mini bar in the background
I make a quiz with pictures of the parts of the body for example I make a quiz with scapula. I delete the latin labels of the bone one by one and after every one I save the picture with the other labels with a number for the picture. I number the pictures from highest to lowes number becouse in this way when I start to change the pictures the next one part of the bone appears and I try to guess it before I go to it. This method helps me becose first when you make the quiz you see the word you delete one by one and after you try to say the parts of the bone.
P.S Before I make the quiz with the numbered pictures I read the text of my anatomy textbook and after every one part of the bone I search it on the picture which I go to use for making a quiz after reading. I use 3d atlas too but classic is better for me.
Awesome, thank you for the tips, Dr. Cellini! Btw, what are your favorite drinks in the back? The bottles look so fancy! :) They are definitely needed after every semester lol. I feel like an expert is above a master. :)
