Block1

=Histology Help from Second Years= Here you will find the histology powerpoint presentations from years past. They should match pretty closely with the order and content that Dr. Crissman follows in class. I strongly reccomend that you attend the labs, download and svae these files, and take notes directly on them. You can either print them out and write directly on the page, or type into the notes section of the slide viewer in powerpoint. It can be very frustrating to follow along with Dr. Crissman during the lab sections, but you need to remember that the histology slides will make up a decent amount of the questions (20-25, if last year is a judge) on the exams, which can be (almost) easy points if you take the time to go through the slides. Also, Dr. Crissman seems rather dificult to deal with sometimes in class, but he is actually a pretty incredible resource. If you are still having problems with histology, definitely set up an appointment to meet with him. He will run through the slides with you, and help you to understand the important features of each slide. Also, most of us in the second year class are pretty approachable, so if you need something, just ask one of us. Have fun, and good luck studying, Your friendly second years.
