  2. Drug guide... old vs new

    I am starting my nursing classes the first week of Sept. I was wondering if I need the newer versions of Davis's for school? Our instructor said we didn't have to ... in fact in the school bookstore they have the 2008 version (20th ed.) which I didn'...

  4. Not impressed and depressed

    I love the information in this post... I am definitely one of those who need to grow a back bone and not take things so personally.
  5. Yes I did just buy the book "new"

    A good place to compare prices is the site DealOz.... You can put in the book name or ISBN number and it will show you the prices from all different sites such as Amazon, Ebay, textbooks.com, Barnes and noble. It even shows you rentals.

  7. Can't figure out which one

    I see on my android there is one with a red icon and it is published by USBMIS. This one has the best reviews and to me looks the best from the pictures. As far as the graphics and and it looks user friendly. I also see the unbound and the skyscape....

  10. Not impressed and depressed

    I felt a little out of place at my orientation also. I finished my pre reqs the year before so I only knew 1 person who was in a class I recently had. I could already see some of the cliques forming. A few girls looked downright nasty (like this>)...
  11. Best Drug Manual??!

    I was looking at the Davis's 2013 vs the Lippincott Drug Guide 2013. I really liked the Lippincott especially since it had pictures of the medications. I have yet to start school tho so I was wondering what is it about the Davis's that everyone loves...
  12. To all the students about to start nursing school...

    Thank you. I start the first week of September and I know I can do this but it just seems so foreign right now. I am wondering if I will have to cut back on work hours ( I currently work full time) and how I can find time for everything.
  13. Best Drug Manual??!

    My school recommends Davis's and from these reviews that is what I will be getting. My teacher said that it does not need to be the current edition though. Wondering if I should get the current edition or save a lot of money and get the '08 edition.

    My commute to my school is about 20 minutes. My clinical sites are based on a lottery with the farthest being about 40-45 minutes away from me and the shortest 15 minutes.
