Usual pre-exam rant
The usual pre-stressful even whine:
I realise I'm more than lucky to be able to complain about this, but I still want to complain! So don't mind me. It's pre-specialistic exam freaking out, that's all.
Monday morning: test. 160 multiple choice questions, 100 minutes.
Then, MEQ - modified essay question debate, while they mark the test and take out the OSCE stations.
Then OSCE - Objective Structure Clinical Examination stations - 14, I believe.
Tuesday:
oral exam! Three examinators, I have to bring five pre-prepared patient cases, they choose two that I present in detail, questioning on the patients, then each one puts one more question, usual length is 1,5h.
Tuesday afternoon: some total excess. Not yet sure what, since I don't really drink or do anything more exciting than herbal tea. No matter what the result, I will just want to DO something, like yell or run in circles or something.
Freak out freak out freak out. It doesn't help that I'm totally fed up with studying. In theory at least I would profit from quite a bit more work, but in practice I've hit a wall!
