715 pages, 77 days, 67 lectures, 6 exams, 1 full year of biochem/genetics, & surviving first year medical school biochemistry....priceless!
I am officially done biochemistry and genetics courses for medical school. I am so happy that it is done. I studied my butt off and learned so much information that it is almost ridiculous. Ridiculously awesome too! Although much of the information may not be clinically relevant, it is good to know. Who knows, maybe one day, something from this course will help me diagnose a patient with a rare metabolic disorder or something. All I know is that I have tried my very best to learn as much as I could stuff into my brain.
The thing that I like about medical school is that I am actually learning. During undergrad, I would simply memorize the material for which I was responsible. I don't really think that it amounted to learning much for the long run. But here, I am making more connections with the material and trying to learn how this might integrate in medicine. Which makes for an extremely rich learning experience.
So now that biochemistry is done, I am going to nap, get groceries, clean, and even paint my nails :)
Bye for now!!!
