The spring break is ending with only 2 days left of "freedom". Next week is the beginning of our 7th quarter transition into the clinic which will be completely applicable to practicing chiropractic. I am excited to begin but wishing for another week to spend playing in the spring snow and sleeping in.
Some of the students who took a quarter off last summer are now in 6th quarter. This is a great change from sitting endless hours in the classroom to hands-on skill building. For those who skip class a lot, this is a big change because you have to be in the labs to learn the skills. It can be exhausting. However, the skills are awesome and build upon the basic understanding of anatomy.
Seventh quarter will be challenging in new ways. We are learning more specialized anatomy, more specialized adjustments and more clinical application. The instructors are more intense and will call us out one at a time. Nerves will be firing at a heightened level as we adapt to the stress being poured all over us.
My hope is that the stress doesn't get overwhelming and that my board scores were sufficient enough to leave behind.
All for now
