So much strife caused by the seat stealing situation today. Two people showed up super early, took two seats that others had been sitting in since Monday, and then reserved two others (those two people didn't show up until 10 minutes after class started). And of course the displacement continued down the line. Since they were sitting right behind me I heard them talking about getting here at 7 tomorrow to make sure they keep those seats, my friends who were originally sitting there are doing the same thing...should be interesting
Yeah, thanks to lecture capture I always had a fantastic seat. My couch.
First semester was just like previous years where everyone was there, wasn't until second semester that it was all electives. And not being able to see what they were pointing at on their screens or writing on the white boards was just a pain, especially after going to the trouble to show up to class
love lecture capture though
Yeah, ours did that, too. Anatomy prof did it and his notes were non-existent

I miss lectures so much 🙁 Our faculty members ended up getting upset that no one showed up to the minimal amount of lectures we had that they would just cancel them. As someone who went to them religiously, that frustrated me to no end. Luckily, the hopsital I'm rotating at now has like three lectures a week! It's amazing and I'm totally in love.
Same here, we don't get our white coats until end of 3rd year right before clinics.I keep seeing/hearing about everyone getting their white coat ceremonies, and I;m over here like...classes haven't even started yet! And 2.5 more years before white coat time.
You earned this Caiter! Try not to second guess yourself. Admissions made the right decision. 🙂
This is a super common feeling, and I guarantee several other classmates are feeling this as well, even in day 2. The big thing to know is that you are not alone. There are people who are there for you, people who can commiserate with you, and people who believe in you, even if you don't believe in yourself. That voice that is saying you can't do this or that you don't belong is wrong. You were accepted for a reason, and you can work past this feeling as you succeed and pass your classes.
Ugh, you and me both, Caiter! I can already tell that anatomy is going to be tough. I thought that my undergrad comparative anatomy class was pretty intense, but even this early on, this is on a whole different level. At least the professor here is awesome.
It's that last part that I have to concern myself with
Omg I was so scared they were going to rescind my acceptance when I failed a lit class in each of my last two semesters and didn't end up getting my lit minor 😱 Why I thought they would care about that I have no idea...
Nah, it's your first day! There are some people in my class who clearly knew each other before orientation, but it seems like either they're roommates, or friends from undergrad. There's a large chunk of people in my class that went to K State for undergrad, too. We're two days into classes and there's probably 2 girls I'd consider friends so far, although I've talked to a lot more people. Give it time! 🙂
repetition until you dream about anatomy
I'm a memory trick fiend, so if it didn't take forever to come up with, I normally had either a mnemonic, story, or something like that to remember things.
Whiteboard worked for the ulna yesterday so I'll probably stick with that.
Are you finding you're a notecard person? Do you know about the picture inclusion part you can buy on anki? A few of my friends would insert anatomy pictures on it and cover up the parts they wanted to quiz themselves on as a way to remember anatomy things.
