Exam Prep and Exciting News!!!


This studying stuff appears to be a never-ending battle. I continue to prepare for the NBCOT (National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy) exam. I finally have a date scheduled; however I am not disclosing it. I don’t want to have the extra and/or added stress of everyone knowing when I will be at the testing center.  I will tell you now that it will be in the next few weeks and I will let everyone know when I get the results. I have been spending 2 or more hours a day studying. Some days are more productive than others, but I continue to plug away at it.

Other good news I got today. As part of my graduation requirements I had to put together a research project. I did this with three other girls. It was a long grueling process and took hours of work to put together. Our project: Accessible School Based Playgrounds in Rural Communities for Children in Wheelchairs, was very interesting and I am glad to have been a part of it. Well on our behalf our research chair submitted an application to the AOTA committee for the National AOTA (American Occupational Therapy Association) Conference in San Diego, CA in April 2013. The research project I was apart of has been accepted as part of a presentation series at the conference. Now, the two playground research groups have the opportunity to go to the AOTA conference and present our project.




How Exciting!!!!!

But for now it’s back to the books to get some more studying done. This exam prep is very time consuming.
