   Yes the nursing care plan. It's under the student choice section. Which one did everyone buy? Isn't it a requirement for clinicals as far as charting and assessment goes?

   How about a minor in general science? Since you took a few science classes for nursing. Online course? Lol. Again, I don't know. I'm just throwing options out there for you. I know we get assigned a counselor at orientation.

   I'm not double majoring with Nursing at school but I do have a BS in Chemistry. Unfortunately with the economy I was unable to find a job in the field that's why I'm turning to nursing. My personal advice is stick to one major for now and see how th...

   For the rest of the paperwork, there is a drop box which you can turn in all the paperwork. As long as the college is open there should be access to the dropbox.

    Any former students on here that can recommend a nclex study guide to give everyone a head start on what to expect? =) I'm thinking of buying a study guide to start reviewing during the holidays since I'll be off from work. Anyone have any suggestion...

    I also purchased the Jarvis and Calculate with confidence. Still have to buy or wait. Not sure exactly what I'm going to do with books just yet.

    Awesome info! Definitely waiting. I still need to purchase books. Which assessment book is everyone buying? Is there a difference or a preference for BCC RN students?

    Great post yoonjmp! Thanks for finding out that info and great suggestions. I would have to agree that a pen light, small ruler and a sphygmometer would be great investments!

    I'm also holding off on the uniforms until the days before orientation. This stuff is getting quite expensive. Paying everything out of pocket so I'm waiting until the holidays to end. I could be mistaken but don't we need to wear our uniforms to cl...
