Resources for Studying for an Exam

[FearoftheNight]

I have to study for an exam and I don't have the textbook. It's a cell biology course. Are there any available resources online for me? thanks.

Any notes or previous assignments you can reference? What happened to your text book? Perhaps you could find the textbook in an online format, Google Books or something similar.

Search Google for lectures, also. I've used online lectures to supplement anatomy, physiology, organic chemistry, etc. my textbook and class notes.

Thank god for podcasting. This nice little high school teacher from the midwest spoonfed me calculus last year. I wouldn't have made it past infinite series without her.

I have that book! It's actually a pretty good book, but yes, it's very expensive. My main strategy for studying, though, was to look through the professor's notes. For anything that needed more explanation, I usually was able to find sufficient information on Wikipedia. The book was only a last resort for me.

A bit basic but not too bad.
