I start my rn program in Aug, and my list of supplies needed did not specify type of stethoscope. I'm having to pay for EVERYTHING myself, so can anyone recommend a great, but affortable stethoscope and where may I purchase one?

thanks, Tina

Littmann II SE. Invest in a good one, and get an unusual color for the tubing. I think Littmann has more than 20 color choices. I sometimes forget my steth at the nurses station, but the tubing is so garish-looking, no one dares to steal it.
