Most Asked - Lab Week 2, pt. 1

This week's lab completes the section on tissue types and introduces bones, starting with the gross anatomy and axial skeleton.

The single most common question of today's lab: The coronal suture joins which three bones? Don't over think it. This was actually a popular question last semester and most students kick themselves once they have the answer - the frontal bone and both parietal bones.

I've noticed that the biggest issue students face at the start of the semester is over thinking the questions being asked and anticipating complicated answers.  Learn from this question. Slow down and think about it. If you have taken the time to study the material and the answer you come up with makes sense to you, don't second guess yourself. I know too many students, myself included, who are guilty of letting their lack of confidence get in the way, especially during lab exams.

As expected, the other popular questions today were regarding tutoring and the Student Success Center. You can find most of the information you need here.
