    I also have a Littman with a self-tuning bell (does not flip from bell to diaphragm). It works wonderfully for nursing school, and it is in fact the same model that one of the professors uses.

    Take the 1.5 credit prep class! Of all the people I know who failed the meds calculation exam, none of them had taken that class. Plus it's always helpful to have a leg up on care plans for...

    You'll get in with a 29. You just missed the cutoff last semester. :) And as far as orientations and stuff, when you get accepted, you are pretty much at their whim. They give you 3 dates that...

    I honestly have not heard anything about fall. All I know is they take the best 120 (124?) applicants, 24/32 or so for part-time. I don't know when phone calls are going out or anything. :/

    I'm not sure why you would want to sell a lot of the books back, such as your dictionaries, study guides, even a few of the texts. Plus the books are chosen by Elsevier, not CSN, so nothing is...

    My only advice is that you will have to study a lot for this class. Don't get behind on your studying, stay on top of it and you should be fine! Compared to later classes, this is not a hard course.
