Thanks guys. I'll definitely let you know as soon as I know something!

Ok, now that I have had about an hour to calm down and talk to the chair of my committee...yes, I passed! To kinda clarify for people who don't know exactly what I'm talking about, you know how people in master's programs have a thesis to do? Well, in my program, you can do a thesis, or you can do a case presentation. The case consists of two big things, a lit review (reviewing any literature pertaining to the client you've chosen and the disability/diagnosis as well as a DETAILED summary of everything you did in clinic) and the actual case presentation, where you give the results of clinic and what you learned from it. And, you have to pass that in order to graduate...even if you've passed all your classes. So yeap, I passed it. As long as I pass all my classes (which I will), I'll graduate in May!

About the case, since the chair of my committee wasn't there, they audiotaped it. And the other two members of my committee stumped me with one question (the difference between a delay and a disorder). I tried to answer, but then I was like "but I have to be honest, I don't know. I've always figured they were used interchangeably." So they tried to explain it to me...and when I talked to my chair today, she agreed with me! She spent two hours researching delay and disorder and wrote a two page email to the other members of my committee...and believes that the terms are used interchangeably. So...I answered everything correctly! (Granted, you're allowed one or two missed questions)...I PASSED!
