I'm starting basics this August and have heard from a couple of people that some of the texts aren't necessary- esp the pharm text. Can any of y'all who have already been through back this up? I'd rather not spend the $ if I don't have to, so any info is appreciated.
Get the Test Success book, a nursing diagnosis book, a drug guide, a good NCLEX review book, and if the Medical Surgical Nursing text is on the list, def. get it b/c you will use it throughout. Forget the rest. Congrats...and good luck!
i've already started reading Fundamentals Success. and i just got prentice hall's drug guide for nurses. just going to buy books one at a time- they ain't cheap!
We were told at oreintation that we would be paying for access to alot of testing supplies and other stuff from ATI testing.com and in our last semester we would have the NCLEX review book as one of our text all of this is included in our tuition wha are your thought on this
