So all last week I was floating along, imagining how much of a breeze class was going to be...because hey, I got a 91.4% on my Mod 1 Exam, right?
Well, my lack of studying definitely showed up in the first quiz of the next section....74.3%
I was particularly annoyed, because 3 questions out of 35 I was just careless, and wasn't paying attention. I didn't particularly do well on the first drug quiz either (oxygen). I really should have known that it wasn't my lack of understanding of the material that would be my downfall, but really my academic arrogance.
We have moved into the realm of pharmacology, which is awesome. Its amazing how much the Greek that I perused in my textbook is now coming together, as well as how much more I am understanding about what is going on with my patients at work.
I am trying to really get a solid understanding of these basic concepts if I hope to understand the stuff that we build on top of it. I would make some analogy about building foundations or something.
