Exam results are out for the summer set of exams - I passed! I'm now officially a 4th year. Only 2 more years to go until we are released in to the big wide world, and from how things are going when seeing practice that is quite a scary thought.
I see myself improving at most techniques I have practiced during my time here, except in a couple of areas. My major stumbling block is an inability to place I.V. catheters. I've tried in cats, dogs and cows so far with only 1 success which came today after a lot of poking around in the general vein area. Luckily the cat didn't seem to mind too much. How is it that I can hit a tiny wee cat cephalic vein yet miss a HUUUUUGE calf jugular. It makes no sense.
