Ps...all my cards are in for Central Campus....who's with me? KCOOPS? Christopher? Deena? Who else?

I am still walking on Cloud 9 from just getting in, but I would love to end up at a campus with all of us together.

So far it looks like drbeck and I are going for North, Stacie is going for South, and Shelly is going for Central. We have a little network going.

I'm pretty sure the CPR should be designated for health care providers. There is a version that is not.

Some insider info: Pen light should have replaceable batteries; bring a pen with interchangeable colors, index cards, bandage scissors, hemostats, pill crusher from Wallgreens and Walmart pill splitter $3.98 (needed but not required); small change purse and fanny pack-white(for keys, money, etc.. You will have no place to put a purse or bag). Hair up, little male-up. No fabric cover for stethescope is best. Use alcohol to clean.

So I picked up the perry potter study guide and test for success books today. This is what I am doing to prepare.

Monday- read perry & potter

Tuesday- math skills

Wednesday- perry & potter again

Thursday- test success

Friday- either math or test success

I'm going to be reading during my sons 2 hour nap since he requires my attention all other times.

Question: do you think I should fill out and answer the questions now as I read and then read over them as the semester begins, or wait until the assigned chapter is given?

What's the test for success book? Did it come with the book or something you ordered separately?

It's a separate book. I heard its a must read. It helps you to think critically. Some threads have said just read that before starting others say to read that one and perry potter. Check Craigslist there are a couple on there cheaper than bookstore, amazon, or eBay.

Did you get your books new, used, or rent from amazon?

And what is the full name of the test for success so I can look it up if you don't mind?

I bought my perry potter through eBay new, I got the other 2 from Craigslist. The isbn for the test success is 9780803627796.

Hello all! Looks like you guys have gotten started on getting your supplies. That's great. So far I only have the perry & potter text bk. I've been reading a looot so far. Lol I found the syllabus and reading list for north campus so I've been following that...I'm set on going to south though so I hope the syllabuses are similar.
