KCC ADN - Would you share what it was like?

Are you finishing your first semester of KCC's ADN program? Do you still have some ways to go? Maybe you're graduating? Or did you graduate already? If you answered yes to any of these, I need you, so read on!

Most of the posts around here are about getting in to nursing school. What I'm hoping is for some of you who have gone before us to give us some insight about the next step: what we're in for. I'm sure many of us who have been accepted into the Fall 2013 KCC ADN program are wondering some of the same things (especially because it's taking forever for orientation day to come!). Some things that I am curious about are:

1) What was a typical week like?

2) Any advice on anything? Study tips? Tools or guides? Your fav support socks?

3) Did they offer any package deals for scrub pants or equipment, or should I go ahead and start hunting online? I know we are required to purchase the tops for clinicals and lab from the bookstore so that's limited, but a colorful littmann could bring a smile to my day.

4) Anyone selling anything? I hope we'll find out if we're doing ebooks or paper books at orientation on June 7 so I can go ahead and start buying my books.

Thank you all for helping a newbie. I really appreciate all of your insight, so please feel free to add anything that you think will help. Aloha!
