The thing about Medicine I have recently come to realize, is that there is no such thing as bullshitting. You either know, or you don't. I encountered this a few days ago when I was attempting the past year papers and got completely stumped at an acid-base question, again yesterday while we were ploughing through histo slides in the anat museum (and mistakenly called some endocrine organ muscle omg), and yet again today during the spots paper when I could just sit in front of a specimen stunned for 40 seconds before the bell to move to the next station rang.

So as one might gather, spots didn't exactly go too well. I made a few very stupid and costly mistakes. Prof Raj always told us that spots is the easiest paper to score but it didn't seem the case when we walked out of the anat hall today. What a bad start to Pros.
Sigh. I'm very worried for tomorrow's paper too. The hilarious thing was that some of us only found out from our OG mates today that tomorrow's paper is essay questions, not MCQs >.< Ok, it's better than not finding out at all heh.
We must not be disheartened friends, it's 6 more days to summer!
