I actually think Aging will be fairly simple once the rules come out and we know what to study. Musculoskeletal will definitely be difficult though since there is so much to memorize, all the bones and 50 muscles. Plus physiology of the bones and muscles. I'm debating whether to try to fit the names of most of the bones and muscles on my study sheet or to just straight up memorize them

Update: projected focus for Anatomy & Physiology for both divisions next season is Skeletal, Muscular, Integumentary

Integumentary makes a return for its third year in a row!

Wow, I am surprised Integumentary is staying in 3 years in a row. I've studied it since its first year and I really feel like I have it down pat. Which doesn't seem fair to newer members. But I also think it's a simple enough system to learn, so it goes well with the complex muscular and skeletal systems.
Glad to see the reduction in amount of things we have to know by taking out cardio, though. Cardio wasn't too complex compared to some other systems but it was definitely a challenge to know everything about it.
And now we'll be able to easily predict the rules for next year, yay!

Agreed; if there's anything to keep in for 3 years, it would be that (wow, I've been in Anatomy for 2 years already... :shock: )

Same; I wasn't really running out, but I've used far more than I have fore any of my other events.
Wait... sciolyFTW_aku, did you have 1/3 left on your resource sheet THIS past school year? I could barely fit all my stuff on mine!!
Font size 1.5 :) (I never actually had to go below 4.5 though; I did a test and 1.5 is the smallest readable font size for most common fonts).

WOW. Do you have super vision or something?? I can't read anything below 4!! But I have glasses like an inch thick so... that should probably say something about my vision. :ugeek:

Certainly not; my glasses are about 3/8 inch. 1.5 is pushing it, though; 2 is a lot better.

Ok (goes to word to try to read size 2 font). (I was kidding about my glasses being an inch thick, they are probably like 1/4 of an inch.) :D

It's only readable when it's printed out.
