If it's a UA, that one is pretty hard to study for. Good luck!

UA?

A pee test. Urinalysis, or UA for short.

Ah. I get it.

Is there an emoticon for wow-that-went-over-my-head?

As we ponder this, poor Kat is peeing in a cup while he tries to read the cheat sheet he taped to the inside of his thigh. Via con Dios, amigo!

LOL! I always pass the UA, with my own urine.

No, this test was for Anatomy & Physiology I at school. I missed a lab practical on Tuesday, and was advised that I could take that as well before class started.

I got a 95 on the lab practical, and a 72 on the test. The test wasn't up to standard, but I passed and apparently did well compared to a good number of other students.

Well, that's a heck of a lot better than the ending of my story. That test I where didn't study/know the material? I got a 32.

It was hard to recover from that -- I had to re-take the class.

So I guess the moral of the story is....good job!

Thanks, man! Sucks that you had to retake the class.

I'll most likely end up with a solid "B" in this course. Trouble is, with only 24 available spots per semester in my degree program, I have to make an "A" just to qualify to apply for admission. That's pretty freaking intense for a 2 year community college.

If I don't do well on A&P II, I'll have to retake one of them again, and wait another semester to get in. We'll see how it all turns out.

Continued prayers and mojo for your studies.

Man, I do not miss school one fecking bit. Of course, with teenagers at Casa Krashpad, it's like I'm back at school all over again.

Thanks, Brian! Going to school at 38 is way different than when I was 18, that's for sure!

Finals are next week. One class (Interpersonal Communication) isn't having one, and I did enough extra credit in Psychology to forego taking the final. It's cool to have over 100% in a course before the final!

That leaves Anatomy and Music Appreciation, next Thursday. Music Appreciation shouldn't be too hard, as it's all about knowing the styles of the composers, and being able to tell Mozart from Beethoven from Brahms. The main one to study is Anatomy. Everything from the whole semester is fair game.

Then it's time for a little break before Spring semester starts.
