Final week of clinical:  complete!  And, even better, we didn't have an exam on Friday (which would have been the normal pattern, but then the exam would have included material we'd just learned on Thursday.  So, our last unit exam is this coming Tuesday, and our cumulative final is the next Tuesday. 

I'll have my final evaluation with my Clinical instructor tomorrow morning, and will be nervous until I do so.  I think I've done okay this semester, but there are always ways I could make improvements.  Ultimately, a grade of "successful" in each of 8 areas is needed to pass Clinical--and even a single "unsuccessful" means you've failed Clinical AND the Theory class for the whole semester.  No pressure there, right?

As I said last week, we didn't have to do *as* much of a write-up, in honor of our last week of Clinical.  This freed up a bit of time for other things, like doing the prep work for the final simulation of the semester (which I had on Friday).  Our last lecture in our Theory class was on Thursday, and covered HIV/AIDS (from a general care/trajectory of the disease perspective; we do not have to memorize how all of the medications work...thank goodness!).

We did have an exam in Anatomy and Physiology at the beginning of the week, and still have 2 more to go in that class.  All and exams, however, will be over my May 14th....the week of May 7th I think I have one exam each day.

This weekend was a little more relaxed than some have been, but I tried to be good and keep studying for Tuesday's exam.  It will cover GI diseases and HIV/AIDS, as well as blood transfusions (which we learned a long time ago it seems, but they try to put different Lab content on each exam; our Lab classes for the last 5 weeks have been simulations).

We did have time this weekend to play another one of the board games we own but haven't played...."Shadowlord!" published by Parker Brothers in 1983.  There's probably a reason why it's out of print...
