Quick question I already have the calculate with confidence book. Am I able to deduct that from the bundle or resell it back to bookstore? Did anybody else come across this? Thanks!

That's a good question. Sorry that I don't know the answer. I took a dosage calculation and pharmacology class already, so it's annoying that I have to buy those books again (albeit I think they are different books). I'm just getting the ebooks because I don't have money for both hard copy & ebook.

I am, however, wondering which tablet/laptop to get knowing that we need mozilla and probably access to microsoft office. I don't recall them mentioning Office, but I don't know that a good report can be formatted without it.

another question: anyone check out the nursing skills DVD's yet? The basic skills DVD is having a hard time playing on my MAC which is a 10.6 (meets the requirements) but the other two DVD's play. ughh anbody else have this issue? @chasingmydream I ended up buying the whole bundle then selling the book to chegg.com for $50 ! not too shabby. Im not sure regarding getting microsoft office, all I have is pages for now. I think you can find sites to download it for either for or cheap. I am so excited everything is coming together! YAY!

No, sorry. I haven't had a chance to figure out the books yet. I've been so busy with finals, but I'm finally done! Yay!

BTW. Strangely, I received word from Dove that my uniform order is already on it's way! I thought they weren't sending it out for a while. Hm.

Have anyone received info. from the nursing dept about the certifiedbackground.com stuff yet?

SfcitygirlRN · Dec 17, 2013

Ohhh I'm sure your glad that's over! I've already read the first assigned chapter and making my way through math and studying. Ehh trying to be ontop of everything before I start behind. I actually went to turn in some paperwork today and they said info is in the mail about the background info.

Also wow about the uniforms! I haven't herd anything yet but hopefully soon! That would make me so excited to get them just in time for Xmas :) enjoy the holidays everyone !!

I'll let you know if I have trouble with the DVD.

I ordered my Dove stuff on the same day as the fitting. So maybe I was sort of early, and that's why they are sending my order already.

Does anyone know where to get our patches sewn on? I guess I could sew it myself, but it would look like a train wreck!

Where did you see that Dove was sending your uniform on it's way? I ordered the same day as the fitting too and I don't see a change in order status hmmm :/

FYI if the DVD doesn't work you can email the support team of Elsiever and the will send a code for the DVD online version. It worked when I tried that instead of using the DVD in my mac.

Oh.. I got an email from Dove saying my order has shipped and it gave me a tracking number and everything. Maybe they just happened to have all my sizes in stock.

Thanks for the tip about the DVD! I really need to start studying >_
