This app is invaluable for an introduction into embryology. Coupled with a textbook esp. Langman's it's actually very enjoyable learning embryology. Highly recommended.

### 5/5 — Great revision words and pictures

*2013-01-27*

Really excellent and useful - visual, text, clearly spoken with pictures that make the world of difference - everything we need and well structured and organised so you can get through it quickly and easily. Loving it, thank you :-)

### 5/5 — Great embryo aid

*2012-11-08*

I'm a 1st year med student. Very speedy high-yield embryo app that is helpful. The embryo guy at our school doesn't Tegrity his lectures and I cant say I would find it helpful if he did. But this guy on this app is a good teacher, simplifies a tough subject. Random plus of the app: I like the British accent. Somehow makes it easier to learn. I recommend it to all of my classmates.

### 5/5 — Great resource for Step1

*2012-08-14*

Good overview of embryology. Short and precise.
