I have fallen a bit behind in my studying of the lower extremities, so tonight I decided to go the cadaver labs and really get a grasp on this stuff. I was there from 5:00-8:45 (i was in some sort of zone there). So which sadder:

1. I spent much of my Saturday evening in a cadaver lab.

2. During my time in lab, no other students, out of the hundreds at the school, were in the lab studying. No one was in there when i arrived at 5:00 and no one else came in during my 3.75 hours of poking at cadavers.

suck it up! you're a med student! 😛
 
aren't 1 and 2 the same thing? no one came in to study cause it's a saturday night
 
I'm going to assume you fell behind on your studies because you were out on previous weekends partying your butt off.
 
Avoid the labs to study. Honestly I spen the least amount of time there and did well. I knew kids in my school that were there at midnight and 2 in the morning...it's just a bit creepy for me.
 
Maybe your whole entire class is already caught up. Honestly if you are behind in your studies you have no place to judge your classmates, just worry about yourself.
 
Hope I wasn't harsh, its just I was studying at the library today which is a rare day for me because I live far and don't have a car. Since being here three people have made a point to come up and make stupid remarks about my sudden appearance "Wow your actually studying". I really wanted to say "Wow so you spend all day here and still fail?".

Dang bro that was kind of harsh. Cut the kid some slack. My man likes dead bodies, ain't nothing wrong with that.
 
The memories of the anatomy lab are coming back to me. During my first semester, probably 10% of the students showed up with any consistency. I did not find it strange that those people were the ones who aced the anatomy shelf. Anatomy is learned in the lab! By the way, I agree that Rohen > Netter.
 
I spent my Saturday night at home studying the clinical stuff we have to know for our upcoming exam, not the anatomy itself. Anatomy lab time will come Wednesday afternoon, most likely. Everyone will be in there on Thursday, particularly since we won't be allowed in there Friday morning.

Haha, you wouldn't be saying that if you knew my classmates. I am about 4 days behind, most of them are about 3 weeks behind. It is pathetic. The teacher spends the first 15 minutes or so of lecture grilling us about the information we have covered, and it is always so painful to watch. About 80% of the people he calls on answer with total silence or "uh....um...uhhh".

I have the third highest grade out of fifty students in this class, so maybe i am just trying really hard. But the thing that seemed strange to me is not only was no one in my class in the lab yesterday (they should be since half the class got under a 60% on the first midterm), but no one else at the entire school was there. It was just me and about 50 cadavers in the lab last night.
