Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has received their acceptance letters for the fall 2012 program yet and if so how many points did you have?

Yeah, it's no big deal I guess. Will have to read it eventually anyway. You're right that they may be correcting the page numbers. Some of the publication dates on the book list are off, too.
Thanks for seeing it! Otherwise I would have kept reading.

I know we'll have to do the reading eventually, so when it gets done isn't really my issue. I'm just more concerned with the fact that they didn't make an announcement or note that they amended the reading list. Oh well.
On a side note, I ended up getting the study guides that came with the Weber and Potter & Perry textbooks. I've found they're a big help when it comes to deciding what to highlight and pull out of the reading for notes. I'm not suggesting everyone rush out and get them, but if anyone is interested maybe I can make some copies or scan the pages before I write on them if you guys are interested. I've found one for the pharmacology text that I might try and order too, but might hold off until after classes start.

That was a good idea Rockbeatsscissors. I feel the same way as you regarding why they never let us know they made changes. Some people never even got the email regarding the textbook list or the one about clinical times and in class clinicals. I'm not sure how some got it and others didn't but I guess thats what you can expect from CCP..I guess we need to take it upon ourselves and triple check everything. On a side note if we do not get additional reading i'm pretty excited about that. The reading in Webber for week 2 is approx 300 pages. I'm curious how they are planning out our lectures,labs, etc. with all that reading as well as homework, studying, etc. I feel bad for those people who have a full schedule of classes and not just nursing and/or one other course. Its going to be rough just getting through the material for this class, I can't imagine having 3 other classes to deal with as well.
Also what are your guys schedules like for class and who are your teachers? I was thinking if we are in the same classes we could maybe get a study group going.

my schedule is as follows:
Lecture: M 8-10:10 and T 8-9 with Lisa Johnson
Lab: M 10:20-12:20 with Lisa Johnson
Seminar: T 9:35-10:35 with Jean Byrd
Clinical TR with Patricia Rexer
Does anyone know how lecture works? There are a lot of different sections/teachers but only two different rooms. Are we being split into two groups and then the teachers take turns? lol.
I have the same schedule as you. I have no idea how thats going to work..lol They must have the room numbers listed wrong or something.
New reading list has been posted to the group forum. Potter and Perry is back on with new chapters.
Gotta love not being notified of changes in the cirriculum. Apparently getting ahead is not an option when they arent sure what were supposed to be reading..lol
I just came on here to post that. I don't know what made me check again, but I'm glad I did.
Also, just a heads up I scanned in the study guide for the Potter and Perry readings on my ipad. If anyone wants a copy I can e-mail them to you.
