My Independance day !! The exam shit is finally down the drain...

Pheeeeew... Never wanna go thro this again in my life... never ever never... Exams SUCK !!! n back to back exams are like crap's crappy way of dealing with more crap !! I barely slept 3 hours a day during these exams... n was on ulcer tablets n head ache tablets all four days... Stress easily gets to me you see...

Anyways, The last two exams were easy... OG n Pediatrics, will pass in 'em. But Medicine n Surgery clinicals were 'terror' !! Have to wait for one more month till the results are out...

Best Presentations - Pedia Long case. Mitral Regurgitation. Cardio-vascular System - I love you. The only presentation in which I answered all the questions precisely n correctly. I even answered a few highly logical questions outta thin air... he he :D. The second prize goes to - Surgery Long case. Thyroid - Solitary nodular goitre.

Worst Presentations - It will probably be a tie between Medicine long case n Ortho short case. In medicine, I got Respiratory system and the patient had some 4 areas of dullness n bronchial breath sounds n a hell a lotta more findings. T'was difficult to arrive at a proper logical diagnosis. So I presented the case as it was and gave a provisional diagnosis. The externals asked me to give a better diagnosis n I simply couldn't, cos of the enormous number of findings in that case. So, findings right, Diagnosis wrong. :( Ortho was an entirely different story. Got the findings n diagnosis right n was answering a few questions right. Thats when the presentation went haywire... The questinos went deep into the subject n I was like "Sir,This may be.. Sir, That could be " n blah blah...

Luckiest Moment - O & G clinicals. I was the last roll number in my batch n a lot system was being conducted to hand over the cases. I had no choice n had to pick up the last n only paper. n Awesome surprise. The cases were 'Anaemia Complicating Pregnancy' n 'Uterine Prolapse' - The exact two cases I presented for my model clinicals exams... Yay !! Grand success !!

My pal Arul was of great help during the exams... Dunno what I wud've done without him. BIG THANKS da tower !!  :D

n another sweet surprise !!  I open my blog dashboard after days n I find that someone has gone all thro my blog... 105 pages in one single day !! Dunno who that is... Blessed soul !! 

Now, I'm thinking about the holidays... 45 days !!  Planning a trip with friends. The options - Goa or Shimla.  yet to decide on one... Goa trip has been a long delayed one. we've been planning the trip for the last 3 years... Pravin wants to go to Shimla cos his brother has a car n traveling will be easy n fun there... So, Yet to decide on one...  :D

Happy Holidays Everyone !!  (oops, Most of you guys will be working or studying your asses off... he he... holidays only for me then... :P )

Ciao.
