Broward College May 2011

Published

Anyone else palnning on applying for May 2011. Im currently in the process of transferring back to broward and I am planning on applying for May. I have all my pre-reqs done and I already took and passed the HESI, and I also have HOSA so I think I may be in a good position(fingers crossed). I just need to take Micro & I plan on taking that in the winter term. If anyone can recommend a teacher I would greatly appreciate it.

I think the e-books are a waste of money and time. It will take more time to flip through the "e-pages" than it will to flip through a real book. I keep all my books in my car anyways and carry only what I need. Maybe I'm just old fashioned but I also like the smell of books

Yeah, I am kind of torn. The idea of having them for reference is nice, but usually I like flipping through pages and having it in hand.

I'm in process two, and wanted to give my opinions about the books. I LOVE my ebooks. I don't even use the hard copies. You don't move from page to page, just scroll down. I also like being able to search for what I'm looking for.

You don't need the pharm book. He gives you everything you need in handouts/powerpoints. I didn't use the medical dictionary, I just google anything I don't know. You definitely need the drug book/lab book though. I strongly recommend the Sauder's NCLEX study guide, which isn't listed.

If you have any time now, get a head start on reading. The first test contains a huge amount of info. Pick up the objectives in the bookstore and as you read, start completing the objectives. She tests directly from the objectives - but in a broad sense.

The objectives is the paperback "book" from BCC ? Thanks

It's like a packet that is wrapped in plastic - not bound. Very important! The bookstore didn't give it to me, I had to go the first day of class and buy it. Oh, by the way, I attend North Campus, not sure about the others.

The drug book is Davis's Comprehensive Handbook of Laboratory and Diagnostic Tests with Nursing Implications. Third edition.
