Went in for orientation, came out with a stethescope.

I just got home from orientation. That was a lot of information. I must say the most stressful part will be filling out all the health information stuff. I need to get a physical exam, a whole bunch of titers done, and probably at least two vaccinations. Plus there is also a two part series of the PPD (TB test). That's the main thing I need to get done.

It turns out I'm not crazy thinking that it was odd we did not have our letters yet. (They emailed and called us.) Apparently they're behind getting things done and have to wait for the regular admssions department to send out our acceptance letters.

(This post sat as a draft for over a month, so decided to post it.)

One Final Done.

I finished the Pharmacology final tonight. What a relief. It was 120 questions. That went on forever. It's funny because we had 4 different instructors for the class and the questions were really different depending on the instructor. There is one instructor that everyone loves. She's wonderful. Organized, good at explaining difficult concepts and actually tests on what she says she is going to test on. As opposed to a couple of left field questions form others.

As far as finals go I have two more left. Chemistry will be on Tuesday and Nutrition will be next week Friday. At least I have study guides for both classes to work on. I'm on edge for the Chemistry because I'm at 89%.

However what will keep me up tonight is orientation for nursing school tomorrow. I have a couple of classmates I know got in, so at least I won't be alone. May actually post tomorrow about what I find out.
