Shout out to my lurking classmate
And then you have my school, which is represented by...me.
Holler.
Sporty spice is here sometimes too!
Shh.
THANK YOU, SKI
I was just expressing my amusement over this to Dubz and some other people the other day....True!!! There's the three for our school.
Note: I still haven't figured out who she is yet....
That’s exactly the case with OkState! I’ve been slowing working on @Emily Faith joining the masses and not be as much of a lurker.

I occasionally try to read through a WW thread and, yeah, I have no idea what's happening.
Plot twist on the mouse thing. A male box turtle has been under my teenage sister's care for the last five years of its life and has not been doing well. Let's just say that box turtles are not a good first pet for someone like my sister, though I love her. I jokingly mentioned to my mom about how taking him would stop me from getting a mouse and I was enthusiastically met with "Take the turtle!" by all of my family members. So here I am with a turtle and not a mouse.

OMG, yes!!! Only Tuesdays and Thursdays for meThese 8 am-5:30 pm days on Thursdays and sometimes Wednesdays are going to be the death of me
They are trying to kill us first week back! The brain, the ear, and the eye all crammed into 3, 45 minute lectures, but then we have a 2 hour lecture just on sheep raising!
Why do we get more lecture time on the sheep industry than the brain?? Who is making these decisions?
You knowe what solves those long day problems?
You don't go to class
YES. I’m official!Got it. Signed you up for Lurkers Anonymous (AKA Spectator Chat)
Ooh, you should! The poor thing could use some extra socialization. He’s a bit lazy at the moment, but once I get his tanked warmed up more I’m hoping he’ll be a little more active.
My arguably 2 best friends failed out of the program (we had a bad semester, 11 students failed out, 5 dropped out). We start today, and I’m still in denial that I’m going to see both of them tomorrow and it’s all been a big misunderstanding.

I'm really sorry to hear that @cdoconn. I hope they are able to come back next year if they want to. Is that amount of students whom fail/drop typical for OSU? I can't even imagine losing my 2 vetschool bffsMy arguably 2 best friends failed out of the program (we had a bad semester, 11 students failed out, 5 dropped out).

She’s at oklahoma State
It’s a lot higher than usual. C/o 2020 had 0 fails first semester, we had 11. They have to reapply to vet school/ would be c/o 2023.I'm really sorry to hear that @cdoconn.

yeah it’s really rough.
It was 106 to begin with and now it’s 90. We expanded the class this year, and now we’re essentially back to the original size of 88.Isn't it basically 105 or so? More or less the same as UMN where I went to school? I mean... geez... 15% attrition in one semester? That's huge.
I couldn’t agree more.
He’s tenured so there’s basically nothing they can do. Which is bull.
It actually was 82 for many years, including mine. Also, I am pretty sure there were some other classes taking people out as well, so while the hate for that prof has its place, it certainly isn't the entire picture. OK has had an attrition problem for years also because the applicant pool is not always as strong as other schools. It is why academics are a large part of acceptance consideration, however OK's population is only so big for IS applicants each year.
I think it is additive certainly to how difficult year 1, especially semester 1, is here. Having three classes that are difficult for most people all at the same time has dire consequences. It was certainly my lowest GPA semester.
For sure, I know my first semester of professional school was a swift quick in the teeth.
Yeaaaah definitely need to bring up my GPA if I want to do a residency. Trying to not think of that.
You can do it for sure. Second semester is fun with the addition of parasitology. Or at least, I really liked that class. Immuno and path are also good fun.Yeaaaah definitely need to bring up my GPA if I want to do a residency. Trying to not think of that.
What are the three difficult classes that OK has first semester? Just curious, since IL does stuff so differently.
Phys II, histo and anatomy
Renal and respiratory phys, but the renal is the one that everyone likes to talk about. lol
