so yeah, due to the crown prep practical ( crown prep= cutting out the tooth structure in preparation for the crown placement later on ) tomorrow morning... I got home 7:55 tonight and need to take the 7:08 am bus tomorrow morning. I wasn't too worried about this practical til this afternoon when the faculty was doing a grading demo on 6 of my classmates' pervious work.
Out of 6, the faculty failed 5 of them due to different reasons.... oh my... and that just freaked me out totally cuz I haven't done any practice since three weeks ago after we finished up the exercise project sheet. I felt pretty comfortable cutting the crown prep that time, but now... I don't know... @_@
The plan was just to stay for awhile after school to cut one or two preps, but then it turned out to be I was there til 7:30pm, left with no confidence. I guess I am going to keep my fingers cross TIGHT tonight, and hopefully... oh please... please don't fail me.
However, before this afernoon, I had a pretty lucky day. Yes, I put it as a lucky day cuz I got 4 referral patients from the upper classmates just TODAY. Wow, I just can't believe this.. it's like I started to worry about that I might not be able to finish up my requirement by the end of this semester ( we need to finish 5 prophy pateints and 4 restorative patients, that means I need to clean 5 patient's teeth and cut/fix caries on 4 patient). So far, I cleaned three patient's teeth and no restorative. All in a sudden, I got 4 referrals this morning. Two of them are restorative patients ( it's really hard to get the restorative patients referral since everyone wants to have more practice, they kinda just keep those themselves). I was just walking on the hallway returning sth to the dispensing room when one of this fourth year student caught me and wanted to refer her "carie patient" to me. LOL...
Well, I better go do some review on how not to fail tomorrow's practical and go to sleep early...
