Tick, tick, tick...

Time sure does fly. Women's health ends on Friday and then we only have Neuro and Musculoskeletal before "Crunch Month" begins. The month in which I crawl into my study cave and emerge a month later as a butterfly...or hopefully something resembling a human being, at which point I will take my Board exam and get on with my life.

Today I met with Dr. Costanzo to go over my study plan. Although it was silly of me to have any doubts, most of my fears were calmed and she definitely left me with a sense of I-can-do-this-ness.

Here is roughly what life will look like for 33 days:

8 hours of studying, 3 hours to exercise, eat and relax, 3 hours of practice questions, bedtime. Lather, rinse and repeat.

In other news, this was a big week in my medical training! Yesterday I completed workshops on rectal, pelvic and male genital exams. Though I am far from proficient, hopefully when it comes time to do these exams next year I will at least give patients the impression that I know what I'm doing!
