Pros and cons of Speed Bones MD app for iPhone and iPad

Speed Bones MD app good for

I bought this application before starting my msk studies in medical school, as I found the subject to be a bit intimidating and wanted to get acquainted with it before the start. I tried looking at my flashcards, but they got a bit boring after a while and I just wasnt motivated enough. This game provided me with a way more interesting way to learn, as I could see my score improve and try to beat it each time. This game contains, I think, pretty much all we need to learn in terms of bones anatomy. I was suprised to find the small bones in the orbit of the eyes, and the many cranium foramen included. Its really complete, and after playing for just a little while, Im starting to know the different structures. When we began our courses on the subject, I definitely felt like I had a good headstart.
Very good applications for the price. Fast, easy to use, and contains a lot of material. We need more applications like that.
This is great for advanced and amatuer learners, a great fun app for 99 cents.
The leg bones connected to the.....something...... the somethings connected to the......wrist watch. Dr Nick Riviera really couldve used such an app!
Excellent! Worth every 99 pennies!!! I learned 224 structures in one week and had fun doing so! I am in 2nd year Uni and am now whizzing through my Anatomy course!
This is a truly wonderful app! It makes it so easy to learn the bones in the human body without confusing you or boring you to death! I would definitely recommend this app to anyone who is looking to enhance their knowledge of the skeletal system. 5/5 stars!

Some bad moments

I have been an MD for 20 yrs. and a Boarded emergency physician for 16.yrs. In that time I have seen a plethora of anatomy quizes. Up until now I have never seen the perfect quiz but I must say this comes as close as you can get. The only thing I would like to see is a method of turning the timer function up or down to allow you to set it at the "speed of your brain"! Otherwise, a great application and a great value - dont just sit there buy it!
Not useful for someone who wishes to review anatomy with precision. I took it off of my iPad.
The majority of the illustrations are not zoomed in so detail is not learned only a general region location. Please add zoom features.
Why wont this app work on my ipod touch...it says its ipod touch compatible!!!
