3. PDA Help!!!!

   eljamstudent replied to studentnurse4964's topic in Student Assist

   Why not ask your school if they use programs, and if they do from where. My school uses Nursing Central and I was able to find it at Skyscape for about the same and it came with a free desktop version. Also, we were required to have several reference...

   eljamstudent replied to newbie08's topic in General Students

   Don't feel so bad. I did the same thing for my children, ages 21 months and 3 years old. My husband is deployed right now and it was extra hard to have them go to school when I still at home. I start this Friday so I did what you did and started them...

11. So it begins.....

    eljamstudent replied to okchug's topic in General Students

    For a 1150 page book, it was 10.50, not bad at all and the size 2 three ring binder I got at Wal-mart, cause it was way more at staples, was 6.97 and it all fit perfectly. It's nice to be able to coordinate my notes with the pages of the text right t...

    eljamstudent replied to okchug's topic in General Students

    I took my books to staples and got the binding taken off and three holes punched in so that I wouldn't have to cart the whole thing to school, just the chapters I need. Helps me not have to carry as much.
