      Both; I'd love to work as a neurologist but also be involved in fundamental neuroscientifical research (epilepsy, conscience, ...)

      I'm quite flattered. For now, my heart (and brains) lies in neurology.

      I re-read the questions multiple times and got to ask for a new MCQ answer form 2 times because of mistakes. Glad I recognised them. Now I know I finished the exam with the exact knowledge I had on the subjects of gastro-enterology, endocrinology and abdominal surgery.

    On a side note, I'm finally moved into my new home, and my internet speeds are a blazing 386 Mbps down / 36 Mbps up. I know it's not the 1 Gbps that a few lucky people get, but it's the fasted available in my area :P

    The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. The opposite of beauty is not ugliness, it's indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, but indifference between life and death. ---Elie Wiesel---

    The the human mind is an interesting thing. The the brain is highly developed, and the the human body has gone through many changes to support the the brain. When the the brain is reading sentences, it tends to skim and fill in the the blanks. I am certain that most of you did not notice the the double 'the's in the sentences. Have a good day! :)

      I noticed it ^^ Would be more productive if the two the's would end up on different lines

    Principal thinks I cheated on my exam because the system says I finished too quickly and got too many answers right. So I have to take it again, under supervision. I better get extra points for this.

      Religion and faith creates hope. I wouldn't call religious people mentally challenged whatsoever. Lots of scientists are religious.

      So there's basically 2 teams here:

       

      Team A: "Sorry to see you go for a while; good luck!"

       

      Team B: "Welcome back!"

       

      I'm intuitively on team A, but what's going on now?

    I overheard a particularly incompetant colleague of mine tell another student that you 'learn through mistakes,' just now. Whille I believe the statement to be true, if all you ever do is make mistakes (as he does), then have you really learned anything?

      If a professor asks a question in college, and I answer it, I'm much more likely to remember the true answer whilst having answered incorrectly. I'd remember the shame on my exam en recall the true answer. Being corrected is one of the best forms of learning to me.

      Even if that means that those things are new for you and not necessarily for other people. Few things give a better feeling than discovering a relation between some variables and having it confirmed by either finding a (known) proof for it yourself, or having it confirmed by a 'savant' in the field.

      I know the feeling of 'discovering' something and hoping for it to be recognized, when I was your age. I found certain relations in mathematics and asked about them in a Dutch science forum. There the mods banned me for repetetively asking about shit that was already known - little did I know. Which is why I'm here. My oldest posts here are such relations that I found. Don't hold yourself from discovering new things.
