Hey, I'm starting to shop for my textbooks for the nursing program and I was wondering if anyone can tell me how much you use the CD's that come with some of the books. I'd like to purchase most of my books online to save Mega $$$ but a lot of times they don't have the CD's with them. Thanks!

Don't worry about the CD's, i'm in the 3rd semester and we've never been required to use them, furthermore, the information on them is usually available online through the book anyways, so buy em without it.

I would get the Taylor Fundamental's book with the included cd videos; there are 17 videos that show different skills we need to know. I had a hard time finding a cheaper version of that anywhere online, I ended up buying it at the Bookmark for $10 or so less than the campus bookstore sold it for. The rest of the texts' cds have practice test questions on them, which may or may not help you study.

I was also going to say that the pack of CD's that came with Taylor are useful. We learn the skills very quickly in lab, so it is nice to have them to watch.
I bought Taylor's at the bookmark along with any others that came with CDs. I was able to buy 3 off Amazon but hey any savings counts. Thank You to everyone for your help!
