Dear Past Self,<\/p>\n
This semester has been awesome. I know you will really enjoy it. You will learn a lot of useful things that will help you in your future studies for medical school. Although we did not spend a lot of time studying the endocrine system, we did learn a lot of other things that were interesting. I loved studying about bacteria and I know you will too. In fact, my personal research paper was over bacterial meningitis. I learned a lot of new things when working on this research paper. I learned how to search through scientific articles and find key information.<\/p>\n
If I Could give you one piece of advise I would say pay better attention to lectures. I found the quizzes to be slightly difficult, but I somehow struggled my way through them. If you pay better attention then maybe the quizzes won\u2019t be so difficult for you. I also found smart biology to be really helpful. Start those assignments early in the week, so that you are not staying up so late on Sunday night. I also found the leukemia research paper to be difficult. Make sure you start that before Thanksgiving break so that you can fully read through the article and understand it.<\/p>\n
This class was a lot of fun and I know that you will enjoy it. Make sure to go to every lecture to max out on attendance points. You will get a small break early in the semester because of a hurricane. It will hit nowhere near Norfolk, but you\u2019ll miss an entire week of class because of it.<\/p>\n
Best wishes,<\/p>\n
