Long time no blog….
Since January in fact….
Oh well. Such is the life of a medical student. Since then, I have done 4 weeks in the Respiratory department, 4 weeks in Neurology, 8 weeks in Obstetrics and Gynaecology (delivered my first baby!), 2 weeks in Otolaryngology, 2 weeks in Ophthalmology and have just started a 4 week rotation in Upper GI surgery. Also have had Obs/Gyne exams and passed. Had two ‘practice’ long case exams and failed, and just had the ‘real’ long case exam which seemed to go well – but I won’t know until September if I have to redo it. I have final written exams in just under 5 weeks.
Then no more exams for over 2 years! I cannot tell you how much I am looking forward to the 28th of September after the last exam has been writ!
Can’t reflect much beyond saying despite feeling like I don’t know enough, I probably DO know enough to be a reasonably safe intern next year.
