2. Nursing Made Incredibly Easy books...

   MrsJessica replied to my3suns's topic in General Students

   Wow, everyone seems to recommend them. Can someone post a link of an actual book. I googled but I'm coming up with so many.

3. Accepted... should I get books and read ahead?

   MrsJessica replied to sarahmizzou's topic in General Students

   I would brush up on A&P definitely and familiarize yourself with medical terms!!! That was my hardest by far because our instructors didn't give us a list of all of them, so I would write the word down and look it up!

    MrsJessica replied to MzRN2B's topic in General Students

    Wow!!! That looks intimidating and insane! I don't think our school sends us a syllabus, but instead has it for us for our "week long" orientation on top of all of the other classes we are taking!

12. WOW!!! I just saw how much first semester books cost!!!

    MrsJessica replied to Waitingtill2010's topic in General Students

    My Nursing Professor gave us advice that we "may" use an older edition, but the problem with those is that there may be more information in the newer edition books. Also, it may help on tests, understanding lectures and labs more if we have the curre...
