A more detailed synopsis of what it is to study for the afforementioned "Boards" - here's why things are pretty crazy for me right now. On top of my 25 credit hours and caring for four patients and a house, a yard/jungle, and a job, as well as studying for midterms this week and next, I have to review the following courses for Boards, all of which (and more) will be tested at the picayune detail level:
Anatomy and Physiology I
Histology
Osteology & Arthrology
Gross Anatomy I, visceral
Gross Anatomy II, musculoskeletal
Spinal Anatomy
Central Nervous System Anatomy
Peripheral Nervous System Anatomy
Anatomy of the Special Senses
Embryology & Organogenesis
Microbiology I, bacteriology
Microbiology II, virology and parasitology
Immunology
Pathology I
Pathology II
Visceral Physiology
Neurophysiology
Endocrinology
and oh, yeah, Biochem I and II. Thankfully that studying was fairly easy to knock off. Tho re-learning glycolysis and the TCA cycle again reminded me that studying for a test like this is an exercise in futility - it is unlikely that I will ever need, or find practical use for, 90% of the stuff that I will re-learn to pass boards.
The moment of truth, or rather, weekend of truth, is Sept 7-8-9th. Yes, they test on Sunday.
After Boards, though, I will be over the hump. (I hope?) Or at least through a really big, flaming hoop.
