Just finished my board exam today!!
I'm so glad it's over because the whole experience was seriously SO stressful! I haven't eaten very much the past two days because I have been so nervous and I didn't sleep well last night.
Why was it so stressful, you ask?
Well...
first you have to find a patient, who not only qualifies (12 areas of large calculus deposits, in very specific areas) but who is also willing to: sit, be examined and have their teeth cleaned in a testing environment for 4 hours.
Then there is the question, Will my patient even qualify? It takes about an hour for the examiners to determine that your patient qualifies for the exam. THIS IS THE MOST STRESSFUL! There is no going back once a patient doesn't qualify. You either have to have a back up, take it in another state, or wait until November.
But mine did!!
I wanted to cry with joy when my patient came back and no one was there to tell me he didn't qualify! SOO happy!
The rest of the exam was hard, but a breeze compared to the stress of before. Overall I think I did well, and now I get to wait for the results to come in 30 days!
All I have to do now is show up to graduation :)
being done with school is pretty much the greatest thing to happen to me since Nick
Loves,
Kristin

Go Kristin!!! You did it! I'm so proud of you. We MUST celebrate the end of our undergraduate careers. Next week sometime?? Happy graduation!
Yay! I bet you're glad that's over. Doesn't it feel awesome? Except the whole "I have to wait for my scores" part. I think it went pretty well, considering everything we had to do.
