My Brain Hurts!
I got out of two back to back tests today, and I think I did a lot better on my psychopathology test than I did on my human neuropsychology test. It was still rather annoying to have two tests back to back, but at least I figured out -why- I did better on the first one.
The notes Jim gives us are structured. He gives them more or less in outline form, and the stuff that isn't in outline has clear headings and is rather detailed. Contrast that to the notes Dr. Littlefield (my neuropsyche) teacher gives. They're scattered, she writes virtually -nothing- down, and the notes are all over the place. There's no real structure to them, which makes it harder to study them, even though there are less notes as a whole.
I'm not the only one who was anxious about our neuropsyche test, though. A lot of people felt really unprepared. Pretty much everyone else in the class. And she wouldn't tell us -anything- about the test really, when we asked questions, because she had already made it up. Grr.
Aside from my class woes, not too much has been going on. I've been going to class. Today is Wednesday, which means we have Senior Seminar, which is hands down one of the most useless classes in the world. Yes, it's -nice- that we're getting credit for doing a thesis, but that class is a huge waste of time. And we did send a letter to all of the professors in the department voicing our concerns about the class. Most of them were pretty much treated as "That's nice, kids. Now get back to work." So nice to see that they really -care- about our opinions.
I swear, the most valuable thing I've learned this week is that when all conventional means of getting rid of a headache fail, a glass of wine works wonders. And really, that's kind of sad.
