   If it helps, I bought a littman classic. It was on sale for $63 I think. Regular $99 I believe. A friend told me that was a good one. I know nothing so I took her word for it. While I was on there I bought my pen light, badge holder and scissors.

   cjack15, I don't think you need to wear scrubs to orientation. From what I understand you will be sitting in meetings all day so wear something you are comfortable in. Wear whatever you think would look nice in your picture because you will wear it e...

   Ok, so today I finally got my information packet too! I went ahead and ordered all of my books ($600 later) and got my PDA set up (another $250). I feel broke.... Also, I got electricity ready to go in my apt (moving Friday!!!) and now all I need is ...

   Sherbevs, I don't have access to any of that stuff yet either. I'm sure they will let us know how to use all of the online stuff during orientation. Don't panic yet...we haven't even started school! If you don't see your immunizations I would call st...

8. Bachelors v Associate - any advice?

   Yes. Checkout texas tech, UTMB, and Texas a&m in round rock. I believe they all have accelerated programs.

   Oh grr...I am so frustrated. My e-connect has not updated yet. I don't see any of the stuff ya'll are talking about. Have any other Bacc2 students seen the schedule yet? If so, does anyone know what it looks like?

    I heard clinicals are 12 hours for Bacc2s. My friend told me you would work whatever schedule the nurse you are assigned to shadow works. I was also told yesterday by Mrs. C at Admissions that we would be responsible for paying tuition the day befor...

    I'm going to live in league city so I'll be halfway between Galveston and Houston. I got an apartment at a place called broadstone walker commons. It's really nice and the price was similar to what I found in Galveston but the apt is much newer. I'll...

    I sent mine in different envelopes and I hope they got there ok. I need to call and check to see if they were received. Also, I think we will find out what software we need during orientation. I downloaded the skyscape app on my iphone but I haven't ...

    Sarah_Ashley, I read on the website that we need all white non porous shoes. I know Nike shox makes some white leather ones and I went to try them on and they arebery comfortable. I read a lot of nurses really like them because they are extra squishy...

    I think the scholarship is a one time thing. Since we didn't have to apply for it the first time I don't see why we would start after the first semester. Has anyone started buying their supplies yet? (ie shoes, books, scrubs, etc)
