I see the light (the end)
It was 3 weeks before my final paper that I decided to start Lectopia-ing all the 70+ lectures again. At 2X speed, at best this would take 30 minutes, or shorter if the lecturer was kind. You might be thinking, 70 lectures to listen to - that's crazy! But believe me, I had been rocking it back and forth in my head, while I was deciding on the most effective way to fully cover everything in Sem4. Then I realised, making up my mind itself was taking precious time off from revising!
So I just set my mind to it, and managed to finish 1.5 weeks of stuff in week 13; 5.5 in week 14; and 5 during Swot Vac. So that was 12 weeks of stuff; so I'm left with week 7 (Neuropharmacology) and 12 (Steroid hormones & endocrine glands). And to this day I look back to 27 Oct 09, the day I did 9 lectures - including the fearsome brainstem - and 40 midsem MCQ's. By the way, how on earth did I squeeze almost all of the PBL mechanisms and some Histo stuff during those moments?
Now it has been a tremendous accomplishment that I'm really thankful for. But I do wish that (next time) I'll finish the lecture synopses.
