Phew! Wasn't as bad as I had expected!

I received my grade today for my Histo/Embryo exam #1. I was pleasantly suprised. I didn't do stellar, but I didn't fail as I had previously thought. I originally thought there was absolutely no way I could above 75% overall. I felt horrible after completing that exam. I scored a 84% overall, which isn't great, but it wasn't the 60% I was expecting. I will definitely require some tweaking to my study habits to ensure I get a better grade next time and try to do more study group sessions to find out the topics / subjects that I am definitely weak on!

Now the grind towards Biochem Exam #1 which happens to be this coming Monday! I also have a little volunteer session scheduled for this Saturday in the morning where we are helping give physical exams to a little over a thousand high school students. I will be assisting by taking their blood pressure / vital signs. I am looking forward to my first clinical interaction since medical school started.

To another day of medical school!
