Is it okay to wear scrubs on Friday night for the lab simulations? If so can they be any color? I know that we cant wear jeans or tennis shoes but it did not say anything about scrubs.

Thanks

Yes it's okay or at least it was where I tested (Grady in Atlanta 12/2010). I wore business casual, but felt like the odd one out because everyone else was wearing scrubs. Some had multicolor prints, and others had solids.

The study guide says business casual, and that's what all of us wore in Mansfield in 2008. I do know some people wear scrubs, though.

You won't be thrown out of the Friday night session for wearing scrubs instead of business casual.

My paperwork said business casual so I would stick with that. This is not the time to be different or not follow written instructions. I'm rooting for you. :)

I agree with Conqueror+.... This is not the time to have EC look at you cross-eyed for not following directions.

Scrubs are not business casual...

They may not throw you out of the labs on Friday night but do you really want to give them a reason to look at you and possibly think... well this one doesn't know how to follow instructions.

And where in the world did you get your white shoes. I just realized we can't wear clogs. I just ordered a pair from allheart.com before I saw that.

I read- all white shoes.

Don't know where to look in Feb in Indiana!

Most uniform store have them or you can get all white sneakers...no blue, red, black, purple ect...on them at all though. Sketchers have some nice one's

All white sneakers can be had at Pay Less or Target. That is where I get mine all the time.
