Human skeleton model

Karim, remember that there are subtle differences between the male skeleton and the female skeleton; anyone in particular?

well im not going to buy both  , so either would be good enough

haha, I guess we will go with the male version.

This site looks very reputable (though it is double your budget)

I think they can ship it to Lebanon. The 33 Inch one (which is about 3 feet) is a fraction of the price at 50 dollars.

Moreover, Lippincott is a very reputable company that our school deals with:

Tell me what you think? I'm sure there are plenty out there for 150 dollars, but that "buyer's beware" bell should go off whenever you're purchasing something off Amazon or EBay.

the 3rd website has nice skeletons, i like the idea of showing muscles' origins and insertions, though those are more expensive... i think ill check first locally for where to get those things and how much do they cost over here.. im sure it would cost much less to buy it from lebanon than from europe or usa/canada and ship it all the way... but at least now i have an idea on what to look for when buying one.. i should check what parts are flexible, better be a little heavy and real size.. and if i find one where the bones can be seperated for my price range then it would be great. thx for your help 

You'll be an excellent MD. By the way, which courses did you end up choosing?

thx i hope so.. i ended up choosing immunology and microbiology and i didn't choose a third because it will be hard for me to finish all the required courses for my last bio year in just a one year along with medical school, so i'll spread the biology courses over 2 years, and ill finish half the courses now, and half next year.. so i don't have to choose the 3rd now... if i find myself comfortable with time it's gonna be neurophysiology, if not then probably nutrition.

I love infection and immunology with a passion. Check out this site I created: www.ppdictionary.com. It profiles all the bacteria, viruses, fungi, etc. that cause harm to humans. All the information you need is there, and it's free!

yea i was checking it and it is great, i'm not sure what we will be studying in microbiology course but i guess this site will turn to be very helpful.
