Is the 3rd semester book package available at ECC? It's not at NLC. :angryfire

OK....still no book, but a supply pack is listed. Price is not.

Anyone know the round-about price for the supply pack?

Well, I should remember the price. :uhoh21: I guess it was around $40 or $50.

I know that there should be only one book in the book pack, the psych nursing text.

If you look at your syllabus in first semester it has all the books for all semester listed, including the Psych book. I hope it hasn't changed. So I guess you could order that on line somewhere.

I wouldn't take the chance of it not changing. I just wish they would make up their minds, and get the info online.

I wonder if it has anything to do with not having a Psych instructor?

What has happened? I thought she was to continue teaching psych.

No.....I was just wondering if that's the problem!?!?!??!?!!

Sorry....didn't mean to cause alarm!!

I was just trying to come up with with a solution of why y'all weren't registered, and why our book isn't listed. :chuckle

Well, I was hoping for a change. ;) (I have found her lectures really boring and her test questions confusing.) You will see. :rollKatie

Efollett has the 3rd semester book pack and the supply pack listed now. I've got an email sent to a classmate to find out the book info because I haven't gone to the bookstore to pick it up yet. She told me there wasn't a study guide, so I hope there is one available.

I just received the "Straight A's in Medical Surgical Nursing" book and CD. I hope it helps, along with the "Incredibly Easy" CD/books I have, the HESI book/CD and the Saunders CD/book. (...And...of course, Ms B requires MedsPub, in which I've always used even though I think it doesn't help that much.) ha

I sure hope these things help. I read one chapter today and filled out the study guide pages for that chapter. I also added a few notes as I went.

I'm going to try to read all the related material, do the study guides, and then just review the study guides when the time comes, study the class notes that I take and Ms. B gives, and answer all kinds of questions from the mentioned stuff above. :)

Whew.....

Do y'all realize it's only 5 months until Christmas? :eek: (Which means in 5 months some of you will be graduated?) :balloons:
