| My own observations, on record for those who might want to look them up in future years.
The mundane:
OMG, those beds are painful! Sleeping on top of the comforter made some difference, but if I were driving out there I'd consider bringing one of those egg-crate thingies, or some kind of additional padding.
More to the point:
If you are ever in a position where you are offered the chance to move into a class that needs more people, consider it very, very carefully before saying yes. Ask if you can try it out for a morning before committing. In the end, I don't regret my decision, but while I was living it, this last session was a very frustrating experience.
Take the practical test even if you are not really satisfied that your effort is going to be up to snuff. It's an excellent chance to get more feedback, and to get feedback from people who have not been watching you all week. It forces you to put your work into perspective, like having a deadline. It's also a great way to get more comfortable with the testing process for the next time you try Coaches College. |
