  1. Att Nursing students: What do you do with your books?

    I don't have a car, and I'll either be walking, riding a bike or taking public transportation to school. I don't know yet if we'll have room to store our things. From the replies so far it sounds like...
  2. Att Nursing students: What do you do with your books?

    So there's no place in school to store your personal items? No
  3. ? for those of you who've already taken A&P1

    I didn't find the bones hard at all. Muscles were harder because there are so many more of them,and you have to not only remember where they are, but what they're attached to and what they do. I still...
  4. Att Nursing students: What do you do with your books?

    That is a very smart idea. But I just can't bear the thought of defacing my books like
  5. Att Nursing students: What do you do with your books?

    I spent very little on books. I buy online, and I buy older editions whenever possible. You can get old edition books for $1 each. Check abebooks.com; I always find good deals. The difference between...
  6. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    I got in the Monday class.
  7. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    I got the holds lifted... The Monday class is full, but the registrar is trying to get me in to that class anyway. I hope it works
  8. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    Now there is only one seat left. That is NOT good for me. Not good at all. I'm going down today to sort out this medical hold. If that seat is taken by the time I can register....
  9. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    Can you tell how many people have already registered for the Monday class? I absolutely cannot take the Friday class. If they don't lift this hold soon....
  10. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    I'm going back to Downstate tomorrow to check the PPD... I hope I can convince them to lift the hold
  11. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    I still have a hold on registration. Please, please save me a place in the Monday Health Assessment--I MUST be in the Monday
  12. My Pathophys textbook

    I haven't even started NS yet, just got my Pathophys textbook in the mail, and I'm getting sick just from the pictures! There was one of a person's leg nearly sheared off in an accident; closeups of...
  13. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    Well I did have to take a second PPD--the reason they gave me is because I was born out of the country (never mind that I have lived in the US since I'm an infant). I did that today. Fortunately I...
  14. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    That's ridiculous. I can't get another HepB shot for 30 days; classes will start by
  15. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    I went to my doctor's office and took a blood test that should prove polio immunity. It will take 9 days to get the results. I hope they don't put a hold on registration until
  16. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    It didn't seem like there is much choice of professors, except for one class that has a Monday and a Friday section. Seems like for the most part we'll all be taking the same classes
  17. Food during nursing school?

    Any ideas for packing lunches/snacks for nursing school? I don't know yet about what is available in the cafeteria and how fresh/nutritious/edible/affordable the food there is, but I'll probably be...
  18. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    Oh, I didn't know they only accept the PPD done through the school. I thought they didn't accept the one from my dr's office because I waited 3 days to check
  19. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    I think I'll just go down one day next week and see what I can sort out. I don't think they can put a hold on registration if I've already started the HepB series. I didn't think of contacting my HS,...
  20. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    I need a second HepB shot and a polio titer test (if that exists). I have a PPD form but it might be out of date--I had it done back in September. I also did one on my recent health checkup but I...
  21. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    I did not get the email with a username and password. I have the username and password to for the admissions checklist but I don't know if it's the same. I also don't see a link for new students on...
  22. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    Lucky for me I finished all my pre-reqs before I even applied. My only hold now will come from missing items on my medical forms... I keep trying to call the health office to find out what I can do...
  23. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    Tons of papers is not good. I just won't have time for researching and writing tons of papers. Unless a paper means a page or
  24. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    I am brushing up on my A&P. I also have some old nursing textbooks (the ones for school didn't come yet) and I've been reading through them, but I think the A&P is most helpful. My basic math...
  25. SUNY-Downstate summer '09--Introduce yourselves please!

    I recommend Abebooks.com for textbooks. They always have the lowest prices, IME. Also, use your judgment and decide whether you can save even more by going with an older edition. As a rule of thumb, I...
