This week in
ISM I have completed another interview assessment and have also finished my
board for the upcoming winter research showcase. As well, I have made my
portfolio showcase ready by making sure all the fonts and formatting matched. Through
my interview assessment, I reflected on my interview with Dr. Quach and the
things I learned. From the interview, I learned about the pros and cons of
optometry as well as the skills all optometrists must have. Finally, I received
advice on what I should do in college in order to become an optometrist. In
class, we prepared for the research showcase by asking each other potential questions
that we might be asked the day of the showcase. As well, we went over what to
do if we can’t answer a question or get stumped. Overall, I would say I was
successful this week as I was able to finish my board and prepare for the
showcase. I feel well prepared for the showcase and am sure that it will go
well. Next week, I will be gathering some final materials to help create an
optometry related atmosphere around my board. As well, I will do another
research assessment and may even start on my original work.
