A Third in...

About a third of the way into this semester, and I'm running scared!  I'm behind on my Kaplan class homework and my Organic Chemistry class.  But I caught up some this last weekend, and a little more today.  I hope to finish catching up by the end of next week!!

We had our first test in OChem yesterday. Scary! About 40 reactions to know (benzene and carbonyl reactions), and I know some of them left my brain during the test.  I hope they come back by finals!

I've upped my campaign for money for medical school.  I hate asking the world to help me, but it's so important that I get to medical school (and not default on my bills), that I'm doing what I need to do, as long as it's legal!

I'm relearning a lot in my Kaplan courses.  Also freaking out at just how much I need to have at the tip of my tongue for MCAT test day.  Still, I'm going for my 36!
