We are officially three weeks into our fall semester and let's just say, it has been super busy. The days are much longer compared to the summer and campus is crazier as well. I miss the quiet days of the summer when we were able to find parking spots easily and could get through HSC without running into people, but that's what happens when you go to a large university. As for classes, they require a lot of work to just keep up with all of the material in each course, which seems to have become the norm. The most demanding classes so far have been Physiology and Microbiology, primarily because we have 4-5 one hour lectures every week. The only perk is that the professors use Camtasia to post their lectures online so we can listen to them a second time or go back to a specific concept we may need to go over again for clarification. Up to this point, we have only had one test, which was in Physiology. The test itself wasn't too bad and we actually got to take it on paper, which I enjoyed because I was able to write all over it. It consisted of multiple choice and true and false questions, so nothing out of the ordinary. Our next test is in Microbiology on Friday, September 11 and it will be comprised of 50 multiple choice questions and we only have 50 minutes to take it, so that is a little daunting.
Other than the demands of classes, WVU Mountaineer football opened up last weekend against Georgia Southern and it was a great time getting to go to the game. I didn't have the opportunity in undergrad to attend football games since our school didn't have football, so it's nice to get the experience now! Go Mountaineers!
