how's your studying going guys? are you freaking out? burned out?

this is our stress relief thread....or our group anxiety thread, whatever..... :laugh: 😀

for those of you that have no idea what the mcat random threads are about, check out molly's explanation:

MollyMalone said:
It's basically a restaurant. That serves breaststicks. And lots of cute fruit and veggies. And is patronized by a HO. And Tucker Carlson. Vin Diesel, too. Lots of race car drivers eat here, as well. We're very well respected by the Amish... one girl in particular is here almost all the time.

The food is great if you're low on iron. It's not on the menu, but you can ask about the special secret garlic cure home recipe. One of the hostesses often makes weather predictions, but she's not always around. I think she has another job with the government. Or a government. Something like that. One of the other hostesses says "Bitch, please," a lot, but she's joking... don't take it personally.

Forget anything you've heard about the girl who died here from arsenic poisoning. That was a long time ago, and she's still alive, anyway... just busy so she doesn't come in as much. Besides, a little arsenic adds a lot of flavor to just about any dish.

Pretty flowers by the entrance, hey? Lilis, they are. Beautiful. And the music is totally hopping... we have our very own DJ. Looks a little like Brad Pitt.

I guess that's pretty much all you need to know. I'm usually in the corner booth over there drinking a nice glass of wine. You're welcome to join me, anytime. We're open 24/7.

😳 Sorry! But you're a future ob-gyn! 😛

You MUST love placentas. I think if I go into private practice I will exclude placentas. Actually, I probably will subspecialize in something non-gynecologic so will never have to see placentas again after this year. 👍

there's only one person here who can answer that, and she's not here right now. plus she continues to deny my requests that she take the MCAT for me, so you're probably SOL.

Technically there are two if you include Lorelei. Also supposedly there was a 3rd person who posted on the 30+ thread and said she was drunk the night before she took it or when she took it. Don't remember who that was. LOL :laugh: :laugh:

But if you settle for a 41 Celina, then you'll have many people on here willing to help you. Or even a 40 or 42. I mean we got two twins on here and several more in the 30+ thread. :meanie: :meanie:

Oooooh... beautiful placentas.

NOT.

I actually am not dreading the autopsies next month - it's the placentas I am dreading. So many placentas. Placentas everywhere.

It's actually intact! I've seen lots of live shredded placenta but never a whole one before. Neat. People eat those, you know.

I wonder if Tom Cruise ever ended up frying up Suri's placenta?

Celina has gone away. I think she was banned for trolling :meanie: J/K

I got my assessments written up today! yAY! I'm faxing them now. I was waaaay behind. Tomorrow I tackle billing.

I did billing (most of it, anyway) the morning that I left for home, hoping that perhaps I'd have a check or two waiting in the mail when I got back. At least from the stuff I can do online, anyway.

Progress notes. Now there's a different story. 🙁

Awww, I had similar worries. It will be all right. I think with the CBT you will have more control over your own timing (at least we do with USMLE, I assume MCAT is the same way). You can take lots of little breaks, one big break, etc.

That's good to know - anyone who's ever spent time with me knows I immediately gauge the position of the restroom, and if I'm driving, I'm aware of all possible locations for potty breaks.

And nervousness makes me go more often, yes. So does cold weather.

That's something I have a habit of doing during every session. Thank God, otherwise I'd be lost in meetings, especially for evals.

I'm going to redo my office this winter/spring and I'm hoping to come up with a killer system to keep my paperwork in check. Right now there's **** everywhere from remodeling the living room. We have to slowly move books and knick-knacks back in once the Xmas decorations go away. My office and the spare bedroom are stuffed with crap.

I wish people would give us gift cards for gifts instead of junk we never use.

🙁 sorry

i doubt you are gonna be pressed for time anyways so taking a quick potty break probably won't hurt you--the little walk may actually help clear your mind. i swear sitting there turns everyone into zombies

I can't remember - did you take the CBT version?

I'll be ok if I get 10 mins here and there - just joking about the Depends.

So you have the research bug beary? 😉

I have some wood stored in the garage for this weekend. Debating if I want to go buy more champage, or something else to drink this weekend. I think wine would be the way to go.
