   We don't use that feature so I think you'd be ok just getting the book. The online resources we use are from evolve/elsevier and go with the Potter & Perry foundations book, but they are optional.

   Oh that stinks they haven't let y'all know what fundamentals book you'll be using yet! I imagine it would be the same because our edition just came out, unless they were to switch publishers...

   Escape, We were able to pick where we wanted to do our volunteer hours but it had to be approved by your clinical instructor. Most instructors didn't want you volunteering at the Race for the Cure or something like that, but wanted you to be getting ...

   Briterz, This summer is my first semester at Brookhaven but I took a couple of classes at NCTC last semester and I had the same problem with financial aid. I was expected to pay on my own and my financial aid didn't go through until halfway through t...

   Question for someone already in the program (or graduated :) ). The clinicals are listed in the schedule from 7am-7pm, are those the actual hours we are there or do they just put that? I have friends in other programs and it's usually 6am-1 or 2pm or...

   I wouldn't get the titer for tetanus or diptheria, it will be cheaper just to get the TDAP shot and you need a new one every ten years anyways. I told the nurse in the clinic where I got my titers done that it had only been 6 or 7 years and she said ...

   I bought one pair of scrubs already! Hope they will be acceptable ones, they match the hunter of the Cherokee ones perfect at least so if that's the only thing I should be good. I went to Scrubs Etc in Grapevine and they had A LOT to choose from and ...

    Are you in pairs during your first semester clinical? My best friend is in UTA's program and she always was paired up with another student (the same one all semester I think) during her junior I clinicals. I think they each had separate patients, but...

    Thanks! Is it in class all of those days? I'm confused where it says this class meets (two different dates) underneath.

    So I had a fleeting thought that maybe I should get dosage calc (and/or end of life issues) out of the way this summer since one less class in the fall might help my availability as far as work goes so I could try to keep my current job. (Those are t...

    I am a little late but thank you so so much sweetpea for answering my question so thoroughly! You're amazing. :) Based on that picture of books I'm guessing the package comes with more than just the first semester's worth? But it doesn't look like al...

    I'm hoping to get a job as a PCT after the first semester, not sure what to do about the fall as I work as a nanny now and I don't know whether the hours will work together even part time. Trying to save as much money as possible this summer! Sweetpe...
