In Preparation of D Day

Monday, September 15 is my first official day of MCAT studying!

I'm excited, anxious, tired, stressed - any combination of adjectives. 

I'm attempting to do something I'm not quite sure is possible.  This semester, I'll be finishing my master's thesis and preparing it for publication, submitting two different grants, taking an extra statistics class, presenting a paper at a conference in October, and working as a graduate teaching assistant in charge of nearly 80 students.

That, plus I'll be studying for the MCAT.

To get a feel for verbal reasoning, I cracked open one of my books full of VR passages.. So far I've done six.  I feel pretty confident that VR will be my best section, and I don't want to fail myself by not putting in the time required of doing well on that particular section. 

I have to go teach now... Then do homework... Then work on my presentation... Hopefully sleep sometime before I head back to campus at 8am tomorrow to do it all over again.

This is the life I love!
