SO professional exam 1 is o v e r! and i passed, Alhamdulillah. There are actually a lot of things to talk about and little things to talk about at the same time, somehow. currently i am fighting the urge to sleep-idk how bedah-the self proclaimed night owl regress over the past few months; from sleeping at dawn (5-6 am) to 3 am then 2 am then tonight, at just 11 PM i already feel like succumbing myself in my bed, but sleeping early is for nERDS so i'm not going to do that. yet. About professional exam 1-the most daunting exam in pre-clinical students life. boy am i glad that its over. yes passing is great but like, not having to study 10 hours a day and feeling guilty when i take a break or giving myself a much needed leisure time is the goodeST. God knows how i spent my raya holiday burying my nose into lecture notes, writing notes, memorizing, watching related youtube videos when my relatives are having fun socializing and bonding (on the second thought, i'd rather be studying rather than doing all that tbh) anyWAYS all that struggle paid! not just me passing the exams, but also how starkly different the exam week compared to my other end-of-semester finals. i get enough sleep, for one. before this i tried so hard to learn everything the night before, so i usually don't have the privilege to sleep. yES you heard that right. i don't usually sleep the night before an exam. at most i get like 3-2 hours and you can imagine how miserable i feel during the actual exam...my head being dizzy and all those information cramped in just one night-i couldn't even store all that into memories. so is it really surprising when semester after semester i had to resit? so yea, after feeling so sICK of having to study when my classmates were enjoying their holiday, i told myself-no more bitch. no more. so i traced back what i did wrong and try to fix that. and god it worked! the most important thing is that i wasn't as pressured to the point of almost breaking down the night before exam because i actually remember the things i've studied, even if they aren't last minute stuffs. and i get to sleep for 5 hours! a big win yall. i actually have some nice experiences for this exam period this time around. i actually enjoyed it? also attributed to the fact that the things that we study for Pro exam 1 are not as in depth as it were for end of semester exams. they're actually the stuffs that are applicable for clinical setting, and i have some sort of reassurance that the things that i was studying about are not going to waste. its going to be relevant for the actual, real shit, ya feel me? i don't want to put myself on the high horse though and give yall 'studying tips for passing an exam after semesters of failing every time' because i figured that different things work for different people. what i did was just finding things that would work for me, and asking myself what do i really want for this examination this time around. for me that would be 'stress free-no more breaking down the night before exam-and the privilege to sleep enough' and i worked towards achieving that la. some people might have different idea, say, wanting to get into the top 10 students or getting on the dean's list, but i ukur baju dibadan sendiri HAHAHAHA but one thing for the surest, please get enough sleep before the exam! please don't be like the idiotic me last couple of semesters and try to pull off an all nighter. not going to do yourself good, physically or mentally. plus, sleeping after studying will actually help consolidates whatever you have learned and make the short term memory into a long term one. now who wouldn't want that? aite so i actually have lots more to share but! one thing at a time. my eyelids are getting heavier lmao. until then!
