Lowest Grade Yet
My written test in my positioning class today was a disaster. I spent a lot of time studying for it, but apparently it wasn’t enough. I made an 84, which is my lowest grade of the semester in any of my classes. After taking the test, I realized that my study approach was simply not the right one, so this mistake won’t happen again. I’ll be much better prepared for my next test. I’m simply not good at memorizing long lists of information, which is what I really needed to do for this test. All of the shoulder girdle positions, including the alternate and obscure, were included on this test, and I needed to know everything from patient position and central ray angulation to what the resulting radiographs look like. I’ll do better next time…
