Third week of the semester

I'm having a hard time remembering what happened this week. Monday, Ashlee and I met with Dr. Yaquinto who teaches communication. We discussed with her our advertising project and gave us a few ideas. We want to make a website that encompasses what our class is doing in Panama. I have no idea how to design a web site so that will be a new adventure.

We have had a lot of readings this week but, to me, it hasn't been too bad. For my JINS class last spring, we had readings that were 100 pages assigned Tuesday and to be read on Thursday so I'm not shocked by the amount since that JINS course was far worse. My paper over the readings, I will be the first to admit, was not brilliant. I am one of those people who likes to take my time when I write because I like to think about what I'm going to write beforehand and 48 hours is not long enough for me to write anything great.

Of course, my focus this week was the MCAT which I finished taking at 12:35 today. I'm not thrilled with it at the moment. Verbal was way harder than it should have been and the passages were all at the max length. It was ridiculus. For the last passage I had 4:34 minutes to read and answer 5 questions. For my practice tests, I always end up with 13 extra minutes at the end so it definatly didn't go as planned. If anything is going to make me have to take it a second time, it will be because of verbal. Unless a lot of people did crappy, I highly doubt the wieghted score will help me. I think biology/organic chem section went well and physics/gen chem is up in the air. But i don't have to worry about it for a while since I won't get my score for a month.

History class is interesting. I have studied a little bit about South America but I never knew what happened specifically. For biology, we will be working on out our proposal this Sunday. Today my group went to the Botanical gardens in St.Louis so I'm excited to hear about all they learned!!
