I purchased almost all of my 19+ books from Amazon.com. I received all my books QUICKLY (about 5 business days). Plus, expedited shipping (e.g., 2-day) is available.

take a look @ this site

what a thoughtful gift idea! gezz, I wish someone would have given me such a gift. more ideas: - a gift certificate @ amazon.com is ALWAYS a great idea. that way your niece can purchase any additional items she may need (CHEAP textbooks are...

definitely get a PDA! like many of the other posters stated: in addition to being a QUICK way to access information, it can replace lots of HEAVY textbooks. EVERYONE, about 90 individuals, in my class have one.

i think it completely depends on your specific personality. with that said... i took chemistry II and human physiology [equivalent to A&P II] together and earned A's in both courses. tons of material was presented and i studied my bottom off b...

nope, don't waste your money on the book. the PDA software is just as good. my university actually insists that students purchase the PDA software version of several books.

I'll be attending UTMB's school of nursing this coming fall. If you'll be attending too, send me a e-mail and we can chat!

(i agree) :yeahthat:

Health Assessment Introduction to Professional Nursing Therapeutics of Pathophysiology & Pharmacology in Nursing Adult I 16 credits (hours) total for my 1st semester as a junior BSN student

our orientation lasts for 4 whole days [the first 2 days are optional but "highly recommended"]. the first 2 days are primarily social in nature. students meet with the nursing faculty and their peers in a laid-back atmosphere, learn how to get in...

$1300 sounds about right for the 1st semester. like others have said... each subsequent semester should require fewer textbooks. I just purchased my 8 required textbooks (and 5 more other students recommended for the 1st semester) and the total co...

yeah, same here. we won’t find out our schedule for the fall semester until the first day of orientation [in late-august]. from what I’ve heard from current students we’ll most likely have clinical one day a week [either thursday or friday] from 6:4...

student grants,and LOTS of loans.

yeah, but only 5 hrs. a week.

i’m debating which edition of nursing care plans: nursing diagnosis and intervention i should purchase (4th or 5th edition). is the latest edition of a book always a better bet? if anyone’s familiar with this book (either edition) i’d love to h...

Great idea Heather! School: university of texas medical branch - galveston Program: BSN What area of interest at this time: NICU & Mother/Baby Biggest fear: That despite determination and religiously studying I just won’t be smart enough, and I’l...

One of your choices should definitely be. . . student nurse handbook: difficult concepts made easy by twiname & boyd

Perhaps clinical assignments are randomly assigned. The University I’m about to attend randomly assigns each student to a clinical site and no consideration is given to how far each respective student must travel. Some students must drive 30 minutes ...

i personally don't like danskos (not because of the price but because of the feel).

I'm interested in starting a "nursing students for choice" group on my (to-be) campus. Is anyone a member at his or her respective university or community college? If so: - Is your group affiliated with any national or local organizations? - ...

My top 3 are occupational med, pathology & neurosurgery; which is interesting because I'm not really interested into pursuing any of these specific areas.

yeah, 80+ drugs an exam is a lot of info [and it’s probably very stressful trying to learn all of them ] but i can see the advantage to learning more than just a “few representative drugs from each group.” i still can’t wait to start @ utmb!!!
