Synovial joints are what?

On a serious note, I never learned how to study. Seriously. I don’t know how to do it. I’ve never had to. I’ve made it through my school years just naturally retaining information and that stuff that I didn’t retain, in my mind wasn’t meant to be retained.

I never got the idea of studying mentally, It just didn’t compute. I remember a friend and I were going to take the PSAT’s and she told me she couldn’t hang out because she had to study for the exam. She spent the entire weekend studying for this exam and in the end, scored lower than I did, and the most studying I did was reading a book.

I’m not trying to say “Oh I’m so smart” cause if I was, I would know how to study wouldn’t I? I’m saying that I’ve gotten by thus far not studying that I never developed how to do it exactly. I mean I get that you can sit there and pour over a chapter over and over again until you’ve memorized it, but that kind of scares me? Also, my attention deficit would never allow it. My focus would be off and I wouldn’t be able to recall a thing when it came down to it.

Maybe I could write everything I wrote down. They say writing things repetitively helps retention. Is that what I need to do? Is that even necessary? How do people study? I don’t get it?

I’m annoyed because I’m taking a remedial science course because the last science class I took was 10 years ago. I’m not annoyed that the class was 10 years ago, but rather that I’m struggling with basic concepts. I’m finding this remedial course to be extensively hard. Despite being able to just pick up on things, I can’t seem to get this going. I can’t pronounce half the words in the book and that frustrates me to no end. I think that’s what really gets me. The scientific words, how things can’t just be simply said.

I would like to go back to when your “Leg bone connected to the knee bone” instead of your Femur is connected to your patella, and your tibia and fibula. Which is connected to some ligaments….
