That last poll.... I am really touched ;-; that so many people offered a request.

But... I have to say. Actually, I was just imitating someone who noted me recently with bad english on a request. I seem to get about 2-3 a month in spite of my extremely redundant actitivy- it still annoys me all the same. Not sure what it is... the bad English, the lack of saying please or whether people just think I am that willing XD

Thanks so much to everyone that though I was REALLY asking for a request though

Oh man. Well, I'm back from the dead. For now...

I disappeared on account of fatass exams. And with good reason too. I can't say any of them left me with a safety cord. But they did seem to get better and better as the days went by. So, I wrote

Monday- Prosthetics and Occlusion

Tuesday- Oral medicine and Oral surgery

Wendesday- OSCE (objective skilled clinical exam)

Thursday- Orthodontics and Paedodontics


Monday's was by far the worst. I expected to be answering questions on crown and bridge work (my favourite part of Dentistry and questions that ALWAYS get repeated) and what I got were these bogus questions on Nayar cores and dentine pins . And a 12 mark answer for assessing tooth mobility?! I only know one diagnostic test. I made up such crap! Well, use your probe to see if it moves, obviously. Measuring gum pockets and radiographs, assessing bone loss in 3 different planes and attachement loss...? Does that even count?!?

What a fracking nightmare. I actually even called my mother in South Africa and cried my heart out, then phoned 3 other people. Something I don't normally do. Ah... well. I had such a headache afterwards too.
I felt so hard done by course the former years got such easy questions whereas ours were SO obscure.

Oral medicine- a few things on jaw cysts and suspicious mouth ulcers. Nothing too undoable. Could've been worse

Osce- always the scariest exam. You walk in a like sheep in different stations doing practical stuff. Like taking a pain history off a role playing patient, or gaining consent for a parent for their child to have teeth pulled out under general anaesthesia and mentioning a 1:200,000 mortality rate. It's all good if you talk too much like me ¦D

Orthodonitcs and child oral health-
That settles it. I find ortho SO boring. Everyone seems to praise it like it's the best part of Dentistry ever. Honestly? You open and close a few gaps and put on some braises. BIG deal. People seem to get so fascinating and yes, it IS nice to see profile and smile benifits. But I.... yawn* I preferred the trauma questions on children breaking their teeth >D


I want to feel happy it's all over but at the same time I am sitting their twiddling my thumbs wondering what a cruel twisted fate might be bestowed upon me. I work so hard but I get such shit luck.
Maybe I am just paranoid. Push comes to shove I can resit what I failed in March. But please no no NO! I worked so hard. It would just be too unfair if it came to that and it'd be worse as I wouldn't know where I went wrong though I will stress they were far from favourable exam questions (the whole point of them I spose) ¬¬
