   I completed epidemiology the summer before I started so I'm cleared. I know several of the students in my cohort plan on taking it their last semester though so no need to worry about it. It will work out. You can meet with an advisor if you'd like b...

   During the week we were on campus 3 days from like 8-3 and and had clinical one day from like 7-5 or something like that. The volume of reading is intense though so the 3 days you have off generally go to catching up or working on other assignments. ...

   You'll get a lot more info at orientation as well in regards to tips and things you might need. You'll have time to order them because you won't start clinicals that first week. Just jump on it right away once you get the info.

   They are all over. Some in LA and some in the valley. I'm not sure what they've decided for you guys for summer. Usually it's two groups. One at one local and the other group at the other local.

   I bought a med book but ended up uploading one to my phone as well so that I could have quick access during clinicals. You also need to create care plans so if your med book is viewable online or via CD that's helpful for copying med info into them. ...

   Yeah, you should be covered then. That's a big relief!

   Probably getting adjusted to this new career. I volunteered in a hospital for two years prior but that only gave me a small perspective as to what it would be like as an actual RN. There is soo much more to the job than meets the eye. Learning medica...

   You may also want to schedule a Dr.'s appointment now so that they can fit you in by early May. You'll need to have vaccinations and things so at least you'll have the appointment in place by the time you get the packet. It will specify what you need...

    Sure. Fortunately we don't wear whites. There is a specific red/black top and black scrub pants that is required. Your packet will have the website and style number of what you need to get. I don't want to give you too many specifics in the event tha...

    Make sure to keep a copy of all your forms and send the letter of intent back to the health sciences office. The change of major form doesn't have to be submitted right away. You can do that the day of orientation. It's best if you do it in person.

    The UDWE is not very hard. They just give you a scenario like "Talk about something you did this summer." They just want to see that you know how to write a coherent paragraph. 3 paragraphs will suffice. Nothing fancy. If you are concerned with passi...

    I think the 9 units thing is a typo because no one has had an issue with that. It makes sense that if you are a second degree that you shouldn't need them because you technically already did them. The only thing is the title V. For that you could tak...

    I'm sure you might have already completed them as a part of your other degree. They are just 3 classes that are considered general ed at the upper division level.
