I’ve been standing behind myself with a cattle prod to force myself to study for my final final, which is in Leadership. I know there are good theoretical reasons that we have to take the class, but it seems so out there and so irrelevant. Am I really going to have to know the six steps of budget reconciliation, in the specific order of one textbook, when I am practicing? If it focused on major themes and practical application, I would see the point of it more. However, it is pointless rote memorization. It’s silly, but I do WAY better on complicated math and science than on this nebulous stuff.
Whatever. I think even if I totally blow this final, I still will get a B in the class. That doesn’t thrill me to pieces, but considering that I have barely gotten through the semester at all without dropping out of school, a B wouldn’t be the end of the world.
I got an A in Research by ONE point…color me shocked! I am soooooooo glad to be done with that class. No class has ever encouraged gun to scalp more than that one. I got a super high A in clinicals and will probably get an A in my med-surg lecture class. My CI was very complimentary in our grade conference. I liked her a lot and hope my capstone experience goes as well as this semester did. I learned a gazillion times more this semester in clinicals than in past semesters!
That’s about all she wrote right now. I’m going to take my Shuffle and go for a prefinals butt-kicking run and then stare at my PowerPoints one last time before lift-off. I hope everyone is finishing up and feeling fab!
