1st Semester Finished

I finished my first semester. Here are my takeaways.
1. Gross Anatomy wasn't as bad as I had feared. By the end of the semester, I could easily eat food in the gross lab.
2. Dental school is probably 20% harder than an undergrad semester. There is just a lot of information to absorb. One nice thing is there is no homework or papers, just tests. I was pleasantly surprised that there was only one comprehensive final out of the 7 or so classes I took.
3. I had never skipped classes in undergrad, but had always wanted them to video record the classes. Dental school gave me that chance to skip school as all of the classes were video or audio recorded. This was invaluable as I was able to watch class during my most convenient time.
4. Rumor has it next semester is better than this one and that every year gets better. I'm still enjoying Dental School.
