Today I studied with Katy, Michelle, and Jackie at Michelle's place in North Center. I have never been a study group person. I always felt that I could get through more material on my own, and learned better by burying myself in a textbook.

This year, I have discovered the benefit of the study group. It helps to talk through challenging material with people and share my understanding/misunderstanding. We got through a few meaty sets of lecture notes for the PathoPharm test on Thursday, and there was popcorn and pita chips. All in all, a productive day.
