SCHOOL SUPPLIES!!!!

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

I love going school supplies shopping- however this time, it may include getting to look for the perfect stethoscope and such. I have found it less stressful waiting on the letters to come out to go ahead and pick out (and pack) my bag I will take with me. I chose a nurse mate bag with a medical theme. I found mentioning of what looked to be the perfect planner for nursing school, on here I believe, its called an UNCALENDAR, mine should make it to me tomorrow. It looks great. Plenty of room to organize. But I have began to pack for nursing school not even knowing if I will actually be accepted or not- however- staying confident- What would be in your bag that you will take for nursing school? Basic school supplies like folders, pens, highlighter...but what else that I may not be thinking of that would come in handy. :)

I LOVE the uncalendar! The bookstore at my old uni sold them and I've been ordering them online ever since. I've always hated other planners- too constrictive. They are so worth it.

I always have a hard time find a planner I like- to find a nice one Im scared to mark becuase it was 30 dollars and you have to write real small, or one that is cheaper but has a crazy design on it for a five year old haha. I was happy to find the uncalendar, cant wait to use it!

Good luck!! Hopefully you get accepted! Waiting is the worst! :( I start my BSN program jan 6th and I've already gotten everything ready lol. I tabbed all the chapters in all of my books, I have 5 binders (1 for each class), pocket dividers, BP cuff (it didn't come with a bag so I bought a small Vera Bradley bag to put both my cuff and my stethoscope in), a bag for all pens, pencils, highlighters, etc., a giant wall calendar to keep track of tests & stuff, a full size planner, and a spiral notebook for each class. I also bought a folder that divides into 3 sections for clinicals.
I got the same idea about tabbing the chapters from YouTube! I haven't started yet though. I am still in shock I think.

I'm a nerd so I tabbed all of mine awhile ago lol. I bought 3 different kinds of tabs because the first 2 kinds were very flimsy and looked like they would rip easily. So I bought the ones that say Durable on them. They're stiffer and tougher and seem like they'll last.
