So for the last two blogs I completely dropped my writing style. I reread them and thought they were sort of banal. Don't we need that sometimes though? To be allowed to just sit and talk without using bombastic terms and convoluted sentences...I hope this is not the only place I can do so.
Upon my arrival to med school, whenever that may be, I expect to have to sound smart all the time. Do you think the professors give me the chance to be wrong? It sort of scares me; I'm wrong a lot. Imagine if all the professors gave every student a number of chances to be wrong(I suppose that's what grades are); will that behavior carry over to a student's practice? How can we become the most intelligent, educated people, when we are given a chance to be wrong?
I hope, upon being wrong, that I also have the chance to either correct myself or to be thoroughly critiqued. I want to do it all right. I know it's impractical to want to be the perfect doctor who does everything correctly, but most people want to succeed in their endeavors. However, the thing that I want more than to be right, is to be able to feel okay about being wrong, at least during school.
I'm not sure how awful I will feel about being wrong afterward.
