These tape sets give very precise, easy to imagine explanations of basic biological processes. I HIGHLY recommend these tape sets for those reviewing for MCAT. Not exactly for beginners, it helps to have a good grounding in the subject areas covered, and use these tapes for exam preparation. Great for studying if you have a commute!! Very well written.

The CD's are of good sound quality. They use 2 female speakers whom alternate between one another presenting anatomy and physiology concepts, principles etc. These recordings are certainly not for beginning students and one must possess a vast vocabulary in A&P to even understand. They speak very quick and are onto other systems/topics before you had a chance to blink or comprehend some of their verbal utterances. The CD's are the equivalent of spead reading where you will be speed listening. I find myself rewinding/repeating the tracks several times to retain the information as you are only able to grasp small pieces of info at a time. Hope this was helpful. Recommend for advance students, graduate and medical but would have to give thumbs down for undergrad students or others just trying to pick up some A&P concepts.

The information is recorded too fast to clearly understand and retain. I received the first order, one side of the tape was not active. I did exchanged thru AmAzon . The replacement came fast ,but another side was not active either. I would try the CD but I am concern about the recording speed of the information provided . The contex of the information is prety good. I wish would be a better product, because I could use a lot.
