I am excited to start the nursing program as I've worked SO hard to get to this point. BUT I was in a nursing program 10 years ago for all of 3 weeks and withdrew. I know what's ahead and I'm cherishing and enjoying every minute of freedom until the program begins LOL I don't know how I'm going to do it with two kids but I can't worry about that now just have to enjoy this summer and u all should too! TRUST me.

Have any of you taken microbiology at the Dunwoody Campus? I am trying to find out if any outside of the textbook is required for the class, but the professor is not returning e-mail until the day classes start back up. I'd hate to buy the whole package the school is selling, if I only need the book.

I just finished it at Dunwoody. There are two main professors that teach the lecture and one requires only

The book and u can get an earlier edition. The other requires the whole package with the mastering microbiology included.

I rented the book from Chegg, it was $30. I bought both the lab manual and another thing under micro from the book store. I think it was about $60 for those. I'm keeping the shrink wrap on them until I find out if we need them or not. I just wanted to get them because I probably won't go back to the school until the first day of classes! :)

I was hoping to rent it, but it's out of stock!

Did you try Chegg? I think they have more.

Hello everyone! I just joined and I am looking forward to meeting everyone when classes start! So excited to have been accepted to GPC nursing program! :-)

I took micro at Dunwoody. The professor I had just required the text book, but in all honesty his tests came from lecture notes so I didn't really need to use the text. Who are you taking for micro?

pbjclan · May 13, 2014

I just received this e-mail from my professor. I hope it helps those of you that are taking his class at Dunwoody.

]There is a homework assignment for Micro lecture. Students have a choice between:

]

]photocopying and answering the multiple choice questions at the end of select chapters in the 11th edition of Tortora (about 30 pages worth)

]

] or

]

]purchasing MasteringMicrobiology with the textbook. If you choose to do the MasteringMicrobiology quizzes and you want to purchase the 11th edition, then a bundle would be a good idea. If students are doing MasteringMicrobiology, I allow them to use previous edition texts of Tortora that are much cheaper. If you choose to do that, then you can purchase the MasteringMicrobiology code by itself (not bundled).

Hello everyone. One of my friends was accepted into a nursing program at another school. She found white Nurse Mates shoes on sale at the Shoe Show with a cost between $14.98-19.98. There's a lot of expenses that we all have to pay out for the program, so I thought that I would share this information for anybody interested. :)

Thanks so much for sharing this information. I googled to find I have a shoe show store very close to my house so I'll be definitely checking those out!
