I was up studying when you posted that. I thought you might have been, shall we say, overly quenched 😉 so I left it alone.

Seems pretty accurate. First time listening to a murmur about a month after learning them in physiology, I'm at my preceptor's office and his partner says to me "there's a nice woman in room 2 with a murmur, why don't you take a listen and come back and tell me what kind of murmur that is." I got it right, but damn I felt sloppy while doing the cardiac exam.

Practice makes perfect. You're bound to make mistakes and not know something, but you approach that hurdle with the mentality that whatever the outcome you will have learned something and that it was a great experience.
