I just received my CPR card yesterday. It took about 3 weeks to get.

It could be that only 15 people signed onto Moodle? I also ordered most of the books and a nurse kit that includes a stethoscope, pen light, ruler, and scissors. Just seemed easier to get a package. I am still taking developmental psych right now so, I have limited time for the reading.

How much did you pay for the package? I been looking into buying a stethoscope myself. I guess I need to get my cpr class done if it takes 3 weeks to get da cpr class

20 something plus shipping. Amazon has it.. search for Sprague nurse kit.

Can't wait to get that package. But I did schedule the cpr class for this saturday and I have been reading fundamentals. Seems like a lot to do. Can anyone tell me if they got their financial aid already? Am not nervous just excited and relieved.

I just finished up NUR 1 and I can tell you it was a very fast paced course but also very manageable. The professors at the school are amazing and there are so many resources like open lab/tutoring to help you along the way. Pay attention in lecture, take good notes, read the textbook ahead of time, especially the key point boxes and take the practice exams.

If you can pick up a copy of Davis's Fundamental Success.. A Course Review Applying Critical Thinking to Teat Taking. It's a great way to test yourself thru the semester, and it provides rationales for the correct answer. It's human nature to be nervous at first, and you may feel initially overwhelmed but trust me it all falls in to place and you realize that the orientation parts are really a refresher for things to come.

Study and you will do fine, if you do not understand something, ask and there are plenty of great people at the school to help you. Work hard, you are in a great school and should be honored. Pay them back by working hard.

I love the school

Thank you for that. I am eager to get started in January.

I'm so glad you posted that. I have been feeling very overwhelmed and scared to start. I been doing the reading but I can't remember everything so I'm very nervous. I'm glad they have open lab and tutoring because since I left my job for school I will be there all the time. @johnns831

Hi all,

First day of orientation is over and I feel really good about the decision to attend Hopfer. I met Friendlyelse and daniellefatima on this board. Sunshine, did we meet? My name is Kevin.
