Hi guys, I'm sharing my experience with my recent exam, which focused on blood banking and microbiology. The questions weren't necessarily difficult, but I struggled with understanding the English language, as it's not my first language. The answers were often very similar, which threw me off. When I was studying for 3 months, I found the process really challenging. I'd translate each question, recall the concept, apply it, and then translate the options to check my answer. It was a lot to handle, and I got frustrated at times. Now, I feel like not trying again since not only it could be a loss of money and I'm unsure whether to start studying again immediately or take a break to let my frustration settle. On one hand, I worry that delaying my studies will cause me to forget the little I know, which could put me at a disadvantage. On the other hand, diving back in without addressing my weaknesses and frustrations might not be the most effective approach. I don't know what to do!!!??? One thing I know for sure is that next time I am studying, I will study with Marilyn every Sunday. I feel like I reallyneed to study with somebody else.
