We're in the midst of test week. For those of you who don't know, how med school at MUSC works is - we have about 4 weeks of class followed by a whole week of nothing but studying. That's test week. It sounds great, but in real life it's incredibly stressful and crazy. To give you an idea - I'm usually home and asleep with my wonderful wife around 9 or 10 PM. This past week I've been at the library past 11 PM, twice. And I'm not even close to the craziest study week studiers. I swear it's the most anxiety-provoking thing they could have come up with. Anyways, here's what the library looks like at 10 PM on a Monday night of test week. Hope you enjoy. PS - bonus points to anyone who knows all the empty carrels.
