Good luck!!!! Keep us posted.

Hi everybody. I will start my nursing program next month. I'm looking at the books that I need to purchase and it is super expensive. I dont know yet if I will purchase the bundle. Is it worth paying $982? Any thoughts?

Thanks!

2 days a week for 5 of the 6 semesters except the last semester you need an extra day to do preceptorship.

Hi nursepattyg, did you buy the LVN to bsn book bundle?

Hi. I’m in the first term now. The school offers a bundle of books for a discounted rate. All books in the bundle include the e book version. I purchased the bundle and quite honestly, I haven’t used the books too often. I only have used the study guide for health assessment and one pharmacology calculation book. There were some books that I had to purchase for the first term that weren’t included in the bundle, but as I mentioned, I haven’t used them much. The professors lecture off power points and that’s really all the info I’ve used for the exams. I had my heart set on having the hard copy of the books, but haven’t used them much.

Hi dmontes77,

I'm cohort 26 and will start on Jan 2020 Monrovia. So the bundle is not worth it?

So they are charging 300 for a test and no interview? Is this a new process. Thought it was interview first then the competency exam? What if a person doesnt pass the exam what then?

No interview. I got invited for the competency exam and skills and I passed. I start on Jan 2020.

The 2 people that used to do the interviews are currently transitioning to new positions. This is probably why there is no interview.

I purchased the bundle and I’m in 3rd term now honestly it’s a waste of money you can buy the ebooks for less and we mainly study of the power points. I’ve maybe used the books about 5 times wish I would have know before I bought them.

Check out Facebook buy sell trade or offer up they sell some of the book for a better price. The book bundle is way over priced.

Thank you. That's what I thought about the bundle. It's way too expensive.

I did purchase the bundle and have used both the ebook and text. I personally am glad I did but I can see why some don't use the books too often. I use both. Sometimes it's hard to use the ebook so I grab the text.

Thank you. I will think about it. But it does look very useful.
