TO DO LIST:

Two flip grid videos, does anyone else have video assignements?

Lab assignment for Long Bone and Bone Survey

Pathology homework #4

Finish up PowerPoint on Trauma

Some quizzes that’s due later next week. (Might do this today or tomorrow)

Just a little study break from my note revision. Going to finish revising my notes from today’s lecture before tackling my to do list. I add my pathology notes to my prior Anatomy and Physiology notes, then transfer them in pdf into my procedure notes. It seems tedious, but it’s faster than retyping everything over for two notebooks.
