It’s been over a month since I took those darn comprehensive exams. I’ve been subtle about it thus far, but I’m tired of it. The bottom line…
*I passed.*
I actually found out right before Christmas but was sworn to secrecy. People are starting to find out about my marks in a variety of crazy ways, so I thought I’d go ahead and make the announcement. Formal results have to be certified by the department director and passed down to me via written results, which I won’t see until we are back in the States, so I don’t know my exact “grades” on the questions. But passing means I got decent marks on everything — I won’t need to retake any part of the exam. It hasn’t really sunk in yet and probably won’t until I see the official letter. But still… passed is passed. Go me! 🙂

Thank you! It really is a huge milestone and I forget that it is a big deal. What a huge relief — not to mention assurance that I actually do know something! 🙂
