Finals week

This is the first of two new posts.

Finals week was crazy. We had four tests and one final project. Each day we had one test at 8:00 am and then were off to study for the next one.

We started out with our final Anatomy test. I studied all day on Saturday and woke up at 4:00 am on Monday to finish it off. The test went well.

Tuesday was our Musculoskeletal exam. It was the easiest of the four, partly because I had a small background in Orthopedics already, and because it interests me the most. I started studying on Monday about 11:00 am and studied until 10:30. I woke up at 4:30 am to finish studying. That test went well also.

Wednesday was the Cardiology exam. I started studying at 10:30 am on Tuesday and studied until 2:00 pm when I read an email which informed me that I had been studying for the wrong exam. Thank goodness I read the email when I did. Of course I panicked and frantically started studying for the right test. I had been studying for the Oncology test that was on Thursday. I studied until 10:30 pm and woke up again at 4:00 am to finish. Needless to say the Cardiology exam did not go as well as I wanted it to. But, I passed.

Thursday's test was Oncology. Thanks to my mistake the day before, I didn't put as much time into studying for this one. I studied from 12:00 to 10:30, and woke up at 5:00 to finish. The test was a success.

Friday we just had our final Evidence Based Medicine project. It was very easy and we were finished at 9:30.

I was able to get a earlier flight to Utah, but it was canceled due to "Mechanical" reasons. My two year old and I spent about 7 hours in the airport on Friday and 2 hours on Saturday. But we finally made it to Utah to meet up with the rest of the family.

Pretty exciting week, huh?
