AP testing has started this week, and I am visiting Dr. Wells office for the last time before Final Presentation Night. This year, I am taking the Physics 1, U.S. History, and English Language exam. The office visit took place between the Physics and U.S. History exams. ISM has taken a large portion of my time that I would otherwise devote to other activities like wrestling or schoolwork. Although I did not spend as much time studying for the exam compared to previous years, I still felt confident coming out of that testing room. In my visit with my mentor, I presented my final product and portfolio. Dr. Wells was very happy to see all of my work compiled, and he is excited to see me continue this research onward. He invited me to a conference afterward with some resident surgeons. They were observing several case studies of patients with sports related injuries. I purposefully chose to sit and observe rather than take notes because I wanted to focus in on how these surgeons assessed each X-ray, MRI, and CT. Dr. Wells invited me to come to these meetings every month through the summer. It was all great information, and I look forward in learning more through that timespan. Overall, I had a great experience to conclude the ISM program for this year. I have a lot to look forward to later on in the summer. In fact, Dr. Wells generously offered to help me get a research project published. That would be exciting, but it would take a lot more work than what I have already done to complete that. Until then, I’ll continue visiting. Whether you think you can or think you can't, you're right. - Henry Ford
