I am buyng my scrubs yeahh!!!

Published

Well, I will start classes on may the 5th an we are able to choose the color of our scrubs, while we are taking the gen ed classes, such as AP math micro phsyco....

well i was going to order online even though the price was nice (i have no idea about scrub prices) they were charging 20 dollares with shiping incluided for a set of navy scrubs...

but i dont know, what size really, my pants are 36 and my shirts are medium, so i did not buy it, i think i better check a real store!

any advice on scrubs out there?

and also i have classes 3 times a week so i think 3 sets are ok right?

Oh Boy! How does one do Anatomy and Physiology in a month? Is that possible? Those classes are pretty detailed, at least the ones I took. Micro is in a class by itself. very interesting, challenging class you should enjoy it :)

I second that! I had to take A&P 101 then A&P 102 then micro! Thats a total of 3 semester, and since each semester is roughly 4 months, thats a long time!! Crazy!

While doing clinicals, do you have to wear a certain color of scrubs? I know that my school only allows white. Also, I am hearing that a lot of hospitals are going to solid white to make nurses look more professional. I would find out about these things before you go on a scrub shopping spree. It will save you a lot of money in the end.

By the way, allheart.com is a great place to order scrubs. I recommend the Dickies brand. Also, get the pants with the elastic band around the top and with the cargo pockets. You'll thank me later.

until we get to our clinicals and "main classes" we have the freedom to chose what kind of scrubs we want to wear! and after that we will have to wear a set collor with the school wich most likely will be white!

since you live in orlando a great store would be uniform city right off of colonial...they always have navy blue and a great selection.

if you register to get their catalog at times they send coupons such as 10% or $5 bucks off and such--pretty decent deals. they also have a website but since you live in orlando i would definitely try them on at the store first.

here is the link: http://www.uniformcity.com/

address: 1243 e colonial drive, orlando, fl 32803

thank you i will definately check that!

we have classes EVERYDAY from monday trough friday from 8 untill 1pm.

so that is 5 hours a day, 5 days a week, basicaly 25 hours a week,

the lenth of each class is 4 weeks, therefore 100 hours per class.

it will bw crazy

If you have short legs like me (29/30 inseam), try Private Swann Fundamentals - they fit the best.

Also, I recommend trying on scrubs. The sizes from different manufactorers vary greatly.

I knew I should have checked out Keiser, I have to take A&P I/ II and micro before applying to CC nursing program. Almost done though.

Good luck!

Wow! That is crazy! I think through a normal semester it would be 160 hours eac h class, so I think I would rather go through your route to save time, but that will be an insane schedule!! Good luck! You will be fine
