Graduate School: Finals Part I

It is hard to believe that I started my graduate program 4 months ago...which means it is time for finals! These will of course be my very first finals in my graduate program. I did well on my midterms but am of course still very nervous for these finals I have this coming week. I have my Advanced Psychopathology exam on Monday (probably the final causing me the biggest worry), my Psychological Assessment final on Tuesday, and my Behavioral Treatment final on Thursday. Other than these exams I have a video mock-counseling session I have to do (which I just did thee other day) and then I have to write a 8-10 page paper about it. This is all my "final" for my Foundations class and due on Wednesday. Oh also my Psychopathology course had final part 1 and final part 2. I took part one this past Monday. I am feeling pretty good about it but not perfect as I know when I was talking to some of my classmates about what they thought the answers to the vignettes were (we had to diagnose mock vignette clients with the DSM-V) I heard some varied responses for the second vignette. All I can do is pray that mine was good enough at this point. Studying is so hard! How do you all study for exams out there? You should see my office right now...I have papers taped to the walls, note-cards all over the place, books galore, and a massive white board in the middle of the room I use to rewrite things. I am praying it just all clicks one night. Right now I am studying over 50 note-cards of disorders from the DSM-V which of course is super fascinating BUT so hard to in grain in my head. It would be so easy to stay on here and keep writing to all you readers out there...especially since it is a great form of procrastination for me but I really must go and continue my studying. I will be writing on here again soon, I try to do once a week but obviously that doesn't always occur. To my readers who read my stuff because of my wedding blogging don't fret the next post will be about weddings. Write in if you have a specific topic you would like me to write about anything and everything I am game! :)
