Members don't see this ad.

I've been doing so well when it comes to eating healthy, but the stress of this exam I'm going to fail just picked up my phone and ordered me a pizza.

This same thing happened to me last night. And then made me eat half of it. 😱

 

[orca2011]

don't forget orca, next week we're drinking our sorrow away with $7 well pitchers.....

We are???? What for? Do I not know about a test or something coming up??
And I mean, I did that last night...but just for fun...not to drown my sorrows.

Haha well we can drink away MY sorrows since I feel so stressed lately haha 😉

When grading some papers as a teaching assistant for an Intro to Animal Science class I almost wet myself from laughing so hard when the answer to a question about the liver was:


Not only was it just wrong, the spelling is hilarious

Ahahahahahaha that is too funny! I can only imagine that that person must have really thought it was pronounced with a g. Makes it double-funny.

Also I'm still going to post the link, but my boyfriend is slow and hasn't put the program online yet. You get what you pay for, I guess 🙄 😛

 

[orca2011]

All the 2nd years keep telling me not to stress, so I'm not. Not 100% it's the right thing to do though at the same time.

ETA: Glad you're paying attention to this lecture as well...hahahaha

 

[Emiloo4]

Didn't do great on the exam, but I didn't fail
Guess I'll find out next week sometime.

Regardless of what the grade is, just take a deep breath and let it go. You had a s*** ton of crap that was flung your way and honestly, I think you handled it pretty well. The next test is yours.

 

[zanydogz]

AND...my brain is so fried right now from my 4 HOUR exam...I couldn't even remember to take my backpack out of my locker at the end of the day...

I just hope I did okay.

Now on to physio exam for Monday and Immuno test for Friday. Yay for studying! 😀

 

[psilovethomas]

Can't believe some of you have had multiple tests already!
Zanydogz- a 4 hour exam?! AHHHH
I have my first exam on the 17th (histo), so 10 days from today. Then they just start cramming them in after that. I've been trying to stay on top of stuff, but I always feel behind. And now I am sick, so I don't know how much will get done this weekend..🙁

Oh noes! I hope you feel better soon! Go to bed early and sleep in a little. Try to do a little at a time...oh and vitamin C tablets helped me when I was sick, so maybe try those?

And yea, for anatomy we take both the lecture and the lab portions back to back and each test is about 2 hours long so go figure. This one didn't actually take as long, but it was the "little test" and the big long ones start in about 3 weeks or so.

thanks 😳
Don't know the grade yet, but I am completely ok with whatever it is. What in the world did you have a 4 hour test in??? I bet you're glad THAT'S over!
I'm starting to get worried about keeping up. We're in 4 classes right now and they are adding 2 more starting next week. Yikes!
Edit: nvm just saw your most recent post... gotta love anatomy 🙄

It was for anatomy. They combine the lecture and the lab portions into one huge test. This one wasn't as long as it coulda been, but still it was enough for me.

And don't get me started on the histology exam I have coming up...three portions to it over a period of 2 days...another 4 hour exam in total I think...

My histo exam is the same way in two weeks. Bleh. We can do it!!

We have 8! It is insane! I don't think it's possible to stay on top of everything, I know I am studying histo for the first time this weekend and for cells and path I studied a ton, but then we covered a ton more stuff so I have a ton more studying to do and I haven't studied radiology but we've only had 2 classes.

PSIlovethomas our exam schedule is about the same and starts with cells midterm on the 17th! Then the 28th we have radiology midterm, the 1st of October 3 hour Anatomy exam over thoracic limb and thorax (I peeked ahead and we're covering thorax muscles, vessels, heart, lungs, you name it!), then the week that might kill us firsties or drive us to the looney bin- October 8th Animal behavior, October 9th Pathology midterm , October 12th cells final.

My brother called to see when he could come to visit so I had to go through and look up all my exams, realizing now why I had just kinda left it as sometime in the future, now that I have it written down it seems so much closer.

 

[zanydogz]

Well...to all of us who have exams coming up and stressful times ahead of us: We can do this!!! We got this!!! Let's kick some exam butt!

And good luck with the studying. I know I'll be in the library for the next weekend...

 

[squirrelsrule]

Just got an email from the Ohio wildlife rehabilitation association and I am currently signed up to teach TWO classes at the wildlife conference in November 😱. I emailed back in April to see if they wanted me to teach a class and I mentioned that I could do a mammal basic class or if they wanted more specific I could do squirrels OR opossums and they signed me up for both, one on Saturday and one on Sunday. With Thanksgiving being just a couple weeks after and I've already committed to going home, which I definitely want to do, I am not sure number 1 I'll be able to attend both days of the conference and #2, I'll ever have the time to prepare for two presentations. I could throw something together, but I'd feel bad if it wasn't awesome. My last talk was on cottontails and everyone seemed to really like it and I had to explain last year that I didn't teach a class because I had a vet school interview the same weekend. I guess they thought I'd make up for it by doing two presentations this year . I feel kinda bad bailing out on one and don't know which to bail on, but after all I did only commit to doing one and really I didn't even do that, just asked if they needed anyone. I asked if they were looking for anyone to do a presentation and they didn't email back (I emailed early so I could set up the powerpoint and handouts when I actually had time before school started!). We'll see. I am kinda torn because if I sign up for both that means I'll stay for the whole weekend which will be an awesome and relaxing time hanging out with my rehabber friends and could be a great break from the craziness of vet school, but on the other hand, I don't think I'm gonna have a whole weekend to spend at a conference. Decisions decisions. I'll have to look ahead to exam schedule then and see what all is going on and how much I'd be missing if I go.

Yep we have 14 classes this semester and they are all added in at really random times.

And yeah, my BF keeps trying to pick a date to fly down, but I have exams every week and I'm not sure which weekend would ever work lol.

i've been trying to figure out what weekend to go to NYC to see some college friends and my sister who just started college! i feel like every weekend starting from now is going to be focused on exams, and any free weekends are going to few and far in between.

AHHHHHHH

 

[sunnex3]

was semi productive today......reviewed 2 biochem lectures, then reviewed anatomy - i think i'm actually making some headway in anatomy now. made flashcards using this awesome app on my macbook, and started making study guides in my notebook. almost done memorizing about 25 muscles of the thoracic limb!

/wow i sound like such a nerd.

now i will go make some dinner and stay dry inside - it is pouring here!

.....then going out tonight.

ok i'm done rambling now.

um yeah def did not pay attention to that lecture........🙄 😛

 

[psilovethomas]

Ugh, this cold is killing me. I barely slept last night, and when I did, I dreamed of dissecting the forelimb. I woke up at 10:30 and then went back to sleep and got a solid hour and a half in. I sat on the couch all day and tried to study anatomy and microbio as much as I could. I was just in a haze from all of the cold meds. I need to get serious about this histo test coming up. I just want to curl up and sleep..🙁

 

[squirrelsrule]

I hate group projects.

 

[ky261682]

Anyone else feel like packing it in? I'm lonely, I miss my BF and one of our cats, I feel lost, I'm overwhelmed, and I feel like I don't belong and shouldn't be here 🙁 I want to be a vet so bad but this last week has drained me. I hope it gets better. I hope everyone else is having a better time of it than I am. It sucks right now 👎

If by get better you mean the work load, stress, sleep deprivation, and always feeling behind, than probably not. But with time I think we can learn to deal and get better used to what is expected of us. I miss my life like whoa too, and you are far from alone in that sense. There will be phases where we want to throw in the towel and plenty of imposter syndrome moments to go around, but you are in vet school because you belong there. You got this. Hang tough, bc although many things won't get "better", you'll get better used to them. *hugs*

Hang in there ky! I am also Very Far Away from the boyfriend + 1 cat, and it sucks balls. Because, honest, it does. And I may have had a small breakdown this morning after talking to family members about my grandfather, who passed away last week, and I am 2000 miles away from everyone and I hate it. Last week was wicked stressful just based on our workload alone, not counting all the personal stuff! 🙁

But eff that noise. I worked my freaking ass off to get here. In 4 years, either I'll be a vet, or I'll be sitting in some other job I don't like very much and wondering about all the "what ifs" if I hadn't quit. Take that little voice in your head that is bringing you down, and kick it in the TEETH.

emotionally, i feel like i'm a dam waiting to burst. i keep on holding in my freak out feelings........but i can feel a meltdown coming over soon.

the excitement of being here as worn off just a little and i'm just really drained already.

 

[orca2011]

I'm still way too relaxed . I think something is wrong with me. Although I do think it's freaking nuts that I'm 2.5 weeks into school and have already finished all the muscles except for those on the head. Starting nerves and vessels of the neck tomorrow. But at least I get to spend the afternoon at the zoo.

 

[kanderson615]

I'm sorry you all are in meltdown mode 🙁 but keep your eyes on the prize! You've worked your asses off too hard to get to this point! Just be like the Little Engine That Could and make your mantra "I think I can!" Take a step back, and look at it all like just one more step toward your long-term goals. In the meantime, make short-term goals, like just getting to the weekend, or the next break, or the next time you go to the bar. Put a countdown in your planner if you want to, it'll help you get through it all! You can do this!! 👍

By the way, here's a link to Derek's program (finally!) 🙂 I hope this helps someone! I know it helped me through several tests in my undergrad, so I imagine it'll be helpful in lab classes like anatomy. Just go here and click the "Downloads" tab up top: http://code.google.com/p/study-time/

Despite my best intentions, my first physiological chemistry exam (and first exam of vet school) annihilated me. This does not bode well 🙁 Had a mini-breakdown. Just gotta work harder I suppose....

Yes. I feel like packing and buying a plane ticket back home quite often, but I have worked too hard to get here to give up now. I feel dumb most of the time and like they made a mistake letting me in, but I am trying my best and that is all I can do. I feel better now than I did when I first started but I still have my moments. I hope you start to settle in and feel more comfortable soon. You can do it! 🙂

Finished my Epidemiology project at 10:45 last night, gonna have to have a serious conversation with my group about getting their stuff done sooner, I can't handle last minute projects. Dreamed about the computer crashing and me not being able to get it turned in and missing the deadline. I know most students are procrastinators, but that just doesn't work for me, much too stressful. I don't see why we had to bring that on ourselves when we could have had the final draft done Friday then reviewed and submitted it Saturday. Instead people submitted some of their stuff and some needed serious work on Friday and then didn't respond to my emails about getting together or sending it around for review to each of us until yesterday in class. I am just glad my big is able to calm me down, I was borderline meltdown last night. Things will be better today 🙂, I just hope the next group project isn't announced today or I might go crazy.

Vet school has shown me just how little I remember from my undergrad days (I graduated in 2005). If I have just one or two classes, things slowly come back to me, but with everything going on, I don't even have time to try to think of what I might know. I just come up with random things, like we were talking about Tay Sachs and I couldn't remember what that was, but I kept remembering cri du chat (pronounced kredushaw) cry of the cat from genetics class in undergrad. I couldn't stop thinking of that. Same kind of thing happened in anatomy, I kept remembering the sternocleidomastoid muscle. Of course, both are things we didn't cover.

 

[ky261682]

Thanks for the support everyone. By get better I meant emotionally better. I feel more lost and overwhelemed in the social sense than in the academic sense. I'm having a difficult time socially and feel like an outcast in my class. I'm so anxious all the time. I'm going to talk to a counselor this week.

*big hugs* from me, Ky. Unfortunately, I've been working in the laundry service every morning and lunch hour or you'd be more than welcome to hang out with me and my crew. It's still early days yet, people are probably still trying to find their niche, so don't feel like an outcast just yet. Hopefully this is just some growing pains for you. 🙁

ETA: Also, your second year buddy is a doll, so I encourage you to reach out to her! 🙂

Here is the other side of the coin. Please don't take this personally, it's just an exercise in perhaps putting yourself in another person's shoes.

*note: fictitious event, but real perspective

--------------------
Ugh, this girl in my group is hell of intense. We finished this project right on time, and turned it in before the deadline, right? I can't handle being nagged about this crap like this. I dreamed about this girl standing outside of my window yelling at me to hurry up, ffs. I know most vet students are type A nutcase spazzoids, but honestly what's the point in that? You'll just drive yourself to an early grave that way. It's really stressful to have a classmate constantly nagging you about something a whole 4 days before it's due! Honestly, it makes me put it off even more, because it's super unpleasant to deal with the crazy. I even put some stuff together and sent it to her on Friday when the thing wasn't even due until Tuesday. But apparently this wasn't "good enough" for her. Everyone else in the group was okay with it, and we're all intelligent adults, so seriously chill out. It got done, things are fine, sun still rose today, etc.

I hope we don't get another group project right away. This girl is going to give herself an ulcer and my email inbox can't take any more of this nagging.

👍👍I think it is important to respect that all people do not have the same schedule and may have other things outside of school that may be equally as important, and therefore cannot get everything done ahead of time.

 

[fromthebox]

I can see nyanko's perspective here. I know it's vet school, and most of us are studying/working on school over the weekend, but reviewing a project on a Saturday? Unless it was due Saturday night, no way. I have personal studying or other activity that I would likely use my day without classes for.

I am a procrastinator type person. If you were in my group my best advice for dealing with me if you really were stressed by the way it went down this time is to set deadlines at that first meeting. If you were assigned this project a week in advance, talk with us about needing the weekend for review/final tweaks because there may be incidentals on Monday and we don't want to rush it. If the group sets a deadline of Friday for submission of my draft, I feel more responsible to have it in because we are all equally responsible for that time and we talked about it. I'm less likely to feel that way if there is no consensus or a loose "it'd be nice to have stuff by Friday"

But I can't speak for everyone, that's just the way I feel about projects. And even as a procrastinator I tend to be more on top of group work because I feel responsible for others. (as in, turn it in to group Monday am or Sunday night if due Tuesday night) and can feel let down when others in the group do not match my effort or turn it in on time/early but not done right.

I hope everything goes better in your group, and believe me I wish I was on top of things like you are.

FTB is totally right here. My post was more of a "this is the exact opposite side of the argument" than a "this is how things should be" type of post. Though I do have to admit it was easy to write, because it's pretty close to how I tend to see things when I'm in a group with someone who's really type A. 😉

In truth, groupwork takes compromise between people who may see things differently like this. Planning is good, but that doesn't mean that the most type A person takes charge and dictates to everyone else when things are "due." In other words, it means that you have a discussion about it beforehand, and yes - set clear deadlines TOGETHER, being realistic and leaving some flexibility for unforeseen events. Otherwise things are going to be miserable for everyone involved.

 

[Trilt]

I've officially passed a test in all of my legit classes. 😀 Haven't done amazingly in them, but passed! Feeling much, much less overwhelmed at this point. Feel like I can actually do this.

Was feeling really overwhelmed about my anatomy exam tomorrow so I went to grab a coffee. We have to walk through the SA hospital to get to the Einstein's here, and seeing all the students in their white coats and stethoscopes walking around treating patients snapped me right back into gear. Such a little thing reminded me of why I'm working so hard. I am just gonna walk around there the next time I need inspiration and a reminder of why this didactic shiz matters. 🙄

Hey there! This is not just for you but for every other first year out there as well feeling similarly...just try to give everything time. I felt so out of place and weird socially as a first year, my boyfriend now teases me about how I came home crying every day for ... gosh, now I don't even know how long. It really gets better. Don't put so much pressure on yourself. take your time, take care of yourself, all of that will come.

I had a horrible time at the start too. Our experiences sound very similar- I went for counseling as well and it definitely helped! Hang in there. Feel free to PM me (any of you). I'm glad to listen. The second years of SDN (now third years) are one of the main reasons that I got through the rough patch at the beginning of last year.

 

[squirrelsrule]

We had to sit with our groups in class today and talk about how the project went so not what I wanted to do at 8 AM, I was still really worked up about it. We had a discussion and hoping it will go better next time.

For the record, we did have a "deadline" of Friday for the draft, but it wasn't done and then there was no plan setup for how we'd go about reviews. I suggested that next time we have a follow through plan and a system for reviewing because having 5 drafts of the same project at 8 PM the night before a project is due is not happening. I said that next time I would NOT do the work into the evening before it was due if it wasn't planned ahead of time, I cannot do that again, I'll definitely work myself into an early grave. We agreed to be more on top of it and communicate better. Hopefully it works out that way.

I can totally see how people would think I'm nagging, and I'd be fine with that 😀. I hate group work. I am not a very trusting person either and I'll admit I'm a control freak. Not about how things are done, but just in making sure they're done. I'll admit if someone tells me they'll write their part by say Friday, I'm not gonna trust it will get done and will worry until it's actually in my hands ready to go. It seems I get burned every group project I do and either end up doing everything, or working with people that say they'll do things then don't. I literally had a project in undergrad where we had to do a 20 minute presentation and I worked really hard on my half and then the other person in my group actually got up there and was like I didn't finish my part but my ideas were (and it was the same stuff we had discussed) and since we got the same grade, we both got Cs. So, yeah, I'd admit, I'm probably not the easiest person to be in a group with, but you can be sure we'll get the project done.

Thoracic and hindlimb exam tomorrow

 

[DVMDream]

Thoracic and hindlimb exam tomorrow

Good Luck!!


My oral anatomy exam is one week from today at 1:45PM... It is on all the bones, all the muscles, the nerves, the veins/arteries, and it includes bovine and equine thoracic and hindlimbs (It is only 10 minutes in length and can cover any of the above topics, including radiographs, you have no idea which specimen the instructor will pick to ask you questions on)...

The second portion of the exam is on Thursday the 20th and it is 30 multiple choice questions and 6 short answer questions and that covers all of the above plus cell biology and embryology... I.AM.NERVOUS!!

Gosh, I feel like such the slacker vet student. Here you all are freaking out about anatomy, and I am just waiting for my rotation to whine down for the day 🙄

Wow that is crazy! So you could get something that you aren't that strong on and it would be the whole grade. Wow. Good luck!

I think you mean wind down 😉

Yeah.... Every time I check this thread I want to post but at the same time I don't because everyone is freaking out and I'm just like "I BLED A FISH! I BLED A FISH!"

I'm definitely not doing as much as I could to prepare and this thread is usually the push I need to get my $h*t together for at least a little bit.
