OSCES are over!

I had my  Objective Structured Clinical Examination, commonly known as OSCEs, this afternoon. I found the entire experience absolutely nerve wracking, but looking back on it , after the fact, I can see how it can be fun, and even relaxing, in future semesters now that I know what to expect. I still have three final exams left (Health and Healing tomorrow, Anatomy and Physiology on Thursday, and Professional Development on Friday), so I still don't have any spare time, but the end is in sight! I know that I have passed all of my courses before going into any exams, so that is reassuring - I can't fail anything even if a bumble through the finals. Nonetheless, I am still studying hard. The nerd in me hasn't burned out, even after four years of university. Perhaps this is a good thing. I know I would be upset if I had a 60% nurse... so I should strive to learn the most and get the highest marks I can. I look forward to having some time off between first and second semester (especially to post here). Unfortunately I will still be kept busy - CT scan on the 20th, appointment with ID specialist on the 23rd, appointment with OS on May 1st, packing stuff to move back to Hamilton for the summer, help mum clean/de-clutter basement before my grandfather visits in June. At least I will be able to sleep in a bit, and sit in the shade with a good, non-nursing related book as the weather improves! Back to studying now... almost done the female reproductive system, and then just have to finish the inflammation unit tomorrow before the exam on Thursday.
