BOARDS!!....Seriously??

I guess the time has come to start studying for boards. I feel like there's SSOOOO much to cover!!! I can't remember what I learned last week in class, let alone all the way back to Microbiology and Pathophysiology!! I think I'll be going to quite a few study groups and really kicking my butt in gear. I've really gotten out of the studying habit this semester so I hope I can pull it together over Christmas break.

2 More Tests

I have to take my Hygiene Final today after Clinic and then I'll just have my anesthesia exam left. I hope that goes okay! I really need to work on the calculations and start memorizing the whole book. It's gonna be a fun few months coming up.

Last Day of Clinic

Today was my last day of clinic and I was able to do 2 Class II patients and a full mouth of x-rays (which gives me 19 PA's total now) I was a little disappointed because my Class III exam patient never came back so we'll see what happens with that. But I have TONS of extra quads this semester so hopefully that will help. My mom was my afternoon patient today and it was a good experience for me. I was able to do 3 PE's.....CRA, accessory fulcrums and the Diagnodent. The Diagnodent wasn't working great but we think it's something to do with the device.
