I was waiting for this thread to start! I mean the potential class of 2016 already has one.

So things are going pretty well for me in Tennessee. I didn't really have as much time to settle into Knoxville as I hoped because furnishing my apartment turned out to be a bigger task than I anticipated. But we've been in class for a week and a half, and so far it has not been bad at all. For me it's been revisiting a lot of material from undergrad. Is physio a huge combo of cell bio, gen chem (with some physical chemistry), and gen bio for everyone else? I haven't started studying too much yet (I'm not a very uptight, type A person), but I know that I'll have to start being more diligent about that. UTK is cool because we have a physical diagnosis class that lets us start seeing live animals beginning the first year. The first three labs are cattle and this week I got to draw blood from the jugular and the tail vein. So that is a nice break from the classes. I'm excited for the clubs to start!
