So it came, and went - in quick succession. We are in the midst of our finals, and with one more to go....one can't help but yearn for this to be over pronto. As for the cases themselves? The first day was an absolute shocker. I got hit - pretty hard in the nuts, to be honest - from the start. It did not help too that I knew the examiner, and the examiner remembered me (from my Sem8/9 days)..... I felt awful at the end of my 9-minute station - I think I've let my consultant down. =( The other four stations were just as bad too, but I guess it could have been much worse. At least I still remembered benign positional vertigo (BPV). And how to teach an asthmatic to use his MDI properly.
The second day was a nice change. The short cases we had were thankfully more straight-forward, and the examiners were really nice. A pleasant surprise! =)
Another three more days to go before long case exams, and already I'm left wondering how to prepare for this one. Well I could study EVERYTHING, since anything could potentially be a long case study....truth to be told however, I can't finish everything within three days, and I'm quite sick of revising already. =\
I wish I could end this entry on a more positive note, but given it's past 1am as I typed this.... it's obvious I need some sleep first. So I bid you goodnight - for now. =)
