Raising anatomy Average in PT school

I’m looking for some advice because I’m not sure what else to change. I’ve made the exact same score on my first two anatomy exams, and I really want to improve before the next one.
I feel like I’m putting in the work. I’ve tried Anki, but honestly it doesn’t seem to help me retain the material. I’ve also put all of my notes into ChatGPT and had it generate DPT-level, application-style questions to practice instead of just memorizing facts. I review lecture slides, practice questions, and spend a lot of time studying, but my exam scores aren’t reflecting the effort.

For those of you who made the jump from average exam scores to doing really well in anatomy (especially in DPT school), what changed for you? Was there a study method, resource, or mindset that finally made things click? I’m open to trying something different because what I’m doing right now clearly isn’t enough.

Stressed

I have my second anatomy written exam in two weeks and it’s on the muscles on the forearm and biomechanics on scapular rotation. I’m feeling very overwhelmed on how to study and need to make a good grade on this exam so any suggestions on how to do really well?

Studying tips

I just started my program and I already feel so overwhelmed. How do you study? Any tips would be appreciated! All the profs are saying that you will have to study differently than undergrad (I already knew this) but I want to know any tips and tricks because I need to make above a 70 for all exams at least!

Thanks in advance

Hey! I start the USA DPT residential program in May and want any advice or guidance from former students or current students. How heavy is the transition? How close is your cohort? Are the professors helpful and lenient and good mentors? Thanks in advance I’m just nervous about starting so soon after my undergrad
