My vacation in the US was nice. When I got back to Göttingen I was thrown right back into the college life. Not that I really was ever able to stop because I had to study everday that I was home. Things started off with my Histology Oral-exam. My tester was nice and I had a nice slide so that it wasn't bad. I had part of the intestine. The tester did however go into detail about a few things and I was relieved to be able to answer all of his questions but one. I also recognized the nerve when he pointed it out. On the Monday I had my medical terminology exam. It was a joke. Terminology is however a subject that you have to study for the sake of knowing the material and not necessarily for the exam because knowing the terms makes the whole medical world so much easier to understand. Just yesterday I had my first of two Chemistry exams. This wasn't a pass/fail exam, rather, we were able to collect points for our final exam.
The Thursday before the Chem exam, my Anatomy professor took us in little groups to look at two cadavers and observe the muscles that we have been discussing in lecture. It was very interesting to see the cadaver and I am very excited for next semester when the cadavers class starts!
Am Donnerstag vor der Chemie Klausur hat uns unser Anatomie Prof ins Präpsaal genommen und hat uns die Muskeln von den Vorlesungen auf einer echten Leiche gezeigt. Es war sehr interessant die Präparate zu sehen und ich freue mich immer noch total auf den Präpkurs im zweiten Semester!
