Journals
These journals reflect my weekly experiences as an athletic training student. Each journal reflects either an actual patient contact experience, or something I am working on in my athletic training courses.
This semester has been one of my favorite semesters since I have been in college. My big concern this semester has been my chemistry class, which is really nice because its not an athletic training class. Right now my only other AT class is gen med, and its really nice to not have many classes to be stressing about. I have had a lot more time to study for my exit since I do not have as many challenging classes. However, my schedule is still very hard, but I could say this semester has been my favorite so far I have also had more time to get my clinical hours in. I really enjoyed being offsite with Bre because I got to experience so many different injuries. It was such a good experience to be in a different environment and with younger athletes. I still need to continue working on reviewing for my exit. I am very, very nervous for this upcoming Saturday. I think I get so nervous that I stress myself way too much which is not ok. I know that I know the material, I just get so nervous I forget to talk normal and just rush through my interview. I am really going to focus on expressing my knowledge throughout this exit because I have been working really hard since the beginning of the semester. I have been reviewing notecards since February. This has been a goal of mine to review as much as I can before I take my exit. I have been separating different body sections in order to allow for less things to review and more time to focus on the actual injury. I also need to start preparing myself to take my GRE and BOC. I am planning on taking my GRE over the summer or early august, so I can apply early to as many school that I am able to. I also just want to get this test out of the way because I need to focus on my senior year. Lastly, I need to start preparing to take my BOC. I know I have test anxiety, so the more practice tests I can take the more confident I will feel in myself when I take the test. I want to continue reviewing my notes since my spring semester of my freshmen year. I feel like sometimes I just memorize terms, and I don’t actually take the time to understand the concept.
