Know what I mean?
Okay, so I'm cruising along in my educational path. First two years of medicine... done. First year of PhD... done. Feeling like I'm ready for my written and oral qualification for candidacy. Met with my committee to give a short 15-30min presentation of where I'm at and where I think I'm headed with my project, to see if they feel as though I'm on the right track. Turned into a 2 hour verbal critiquing where I did not get past the 5th slide in a 10 slide presentation. I thought I knew what I was doing?
Know what I mean? I'm assuming this will make me a better scientist? My head is still reeling and it has been a week since the event. I'm trying to regroup the small pieces of my shattered project. Guess its better to have it now, then to be dealt it later in the form of an unscored RO1. What doesn't kill us makes us... ... ...
