For Current Anne Arundel CC Nursing Students

U.S.A. Maryland

Published

I am currently awaiting AACC's decision regarding NS admission, but in the mean time I am trying to get ready

as if I were already accepted. My question to any/all current students is: what do you wish you

had done/someone had told you PRIOR to your first term of NS.

It seems to me after browsing old threads that you don't use all the textbooks that they list for

you, so which ones are mandatory and which can leave out?

Also, did you find out which books you will need during the orientation over the summer? I'd like to

try and start getting the necessary textbooks now.

How many of you read ahead in your books and if you did, did you find it helpful?

And one last question, besides books, what other materials do you need to purchase that first

term of NS? Will you need uniforms, shoes, PDAs, scrubs, stethoscopes.

I want to try an get an idea of how much extraneous money I will need to have.

Thank you so much ahead of time for all the advice!

Why do so many people think that you are supposed to wear white undergarments under a white uniform?? NO, please it is nude or black undergarments. Its very tacky to see a white bra and panties under your clean crisp white uniform. Don't believe me.....try it and see! :twocents: I would even dispute my clinical instructor over this.

Good point! LOL.

I think the goal is; better white, than the camo boy shorts or bright red thong. The "best answer" would be "undergarments that match your skin tone as closely as possible".:specs:
