So this fall is much different than I expected for a variety of reasons, but the main one is that it feels exactly like summer, but its extended. We have 15 weeks to the fall term and we only had 12 weeks to the summer term, but due to the consistency of tests and assignments, I almost feel like the fall is equivalent to the summer. One thing about the fall term that I enjoy is that the FCM sections are much shorter and allow us to study a little bit less in depth which then results in less stress about the questions on what we should know and shouldn't have to know. This term our FCM topics are in geriatrics, endocrine, ortho, rheumatology, surgery/dental, and dermatology. When I saw that layout for this term I was much happier not only because surgery and endocrine are in this term, but also the topics are less vague. These topics are very direct in what we need to know versus the summer where the topic would be like "cardiology" or "respiratory" where there is so much information for one test that it can get overwhelming trying to figure out what is important and what isn't. I plan to update the courses tab for this fall now that I understand what is going on in each class so feel free to check that out if you are interested!
