Does anyone have the book list given to us in orientation? I know the ones that are required, but I was looking for the recommended and optional books. I cannot find the list anywhere and I want to purchase my books in the morning, so if someone coul...

Hey Ms. J, I bought mines from Life Uniforms in Southgate for $85, but you can get it a little cheaper on this site: http://www.allheart.com/2200-16.html Or, maybe they have them a little cheaper on eBay. They are definitely worth it because I bough...

Thanks, chica! You disappeared for awhile...how have you been?? As for me, I'm sure that you have read that I failed my lab class. I'm working on getting back in the program. Hopefully, I can retake it in January and move past this and still come out...

hi tasha, here is a list of the required books for the first semester. if you need the isbn's, pm me and i'll get them for you. nur 110, nur 111, 118 fundamentals of nursing. (8th ed.) (2008) kozier,b., erb, g., berman, a., & snyder, s. fundament...

congrats jillian! as for your question, i was told that unless your teacher told you your grade, you would have to wait until the end of the semester to find out. i was lucky because my instructor mailed our grades out and we knew what we had a coupl...

hey damomma, well, it didn't go well for me. i failed nur 111, so i'm out until january when i'll have to retake it. i was passing the written exams, but i messed up big time in my last checkoff! it really hurt because i got b's in 110, 118, and me...

Wishing you the best!:balloons:

Sweetie, I know exactly how you feel! I'm in the first semester of an ADN program and I'm not sure if I want to continue. It's the most stressful time that I've ever had in my life and I've cried more times than I care to divulge. While I'm doing wel...

You're welcome! I would definitely say that your friend's advice hit right on the money! One of my instructors said that we're on the polar express train and that is so true. It seems like we just started yesterday, but hear we are finishing up the f...

I have Dr. Cook at the NW campus. She's pretty good, but she is very fast paced. The good thing is that she's approachable and always willing to help if you need it. If you're a slow learner or not good at math, I probably wouldn't suggest her. Whate...

Sounds like you guys have nothing to worry about! I got in with a 3.56 without a problem, so I'm pretty sure that you all won't have a problem. Relax and concentrate on getting the rest of your classes completed before you start the program. I highly...

WOW, that had to be an amazing experience!! I would have been so excited to witness such an event! I can't wait to get to OB clinicals because I think that's where I want to work. I'm so excited for you! I swear that I just felt a rush of pure adrena...

When I went to the application meeting last May, we met in the cafeteria and we had to wait until our name was called to fill out the application. They called like ten of us to a table at a time and we submitted all our all documents to Ms. Norris. M...

if i'm not mistaken, you guys will find out sometime in november. i applied in may and we knew at the end of june. they have to give you ample time to get all of your physical, immunizations, and get your cpr completed. hope this helps! *~*syncere...

I'm sorry that you're having a hard time with your instructor:icon_hug:. The only thing that I can tell you is to keep trying. Have you tried talking to the teacher maybe after class for some advice on how to pass her tests? I feel bad for you becaus...

Don't let it get you down too bad. I failed my Foundations lab test by two questions on Monday, but I brushed it off and moved on. I just took it as a lesson learned and studied harder. I think it's paying off because I got a B yesterday on a test an...

I feel your pain, girl!! I'm so tired that I pass out at 10pm every night!! Yesterday I got so overwhelmed with everything that I had a good cry and it made me feel so much better. Next week I have a total of 5 tests...no make that 6 since I have nut...

Count me in! I'm taking nutrition along with my nursing classes and it's alot of information to absorb. I sooo cannot wait until this semester is over and done with. Good luck, ladies! ~*~Syncere~*~

Congrats! We have our first one on the 18th and I'm scared to death! In my program, if we fail with less than 75% we are out of nursing school. I hope that I'll be posting something similar soon. You should definitely give yourself a pat on the back ...

I know exactly how you feel! I started on the 27th and I've been wiped out between getting up at 6am, going to class, and studying. I need more energy! Anybody have any recommendations for vitamins that keep you going through the day? I need to lose ...

I know that I'm late, but I've been all up in Kozier the past few days. I have Maddie and Caroline for 111 and they are awesome! I love them because they take the time out to make sure that you really understand the material. We have 2 quizzes next w...

I would also have to agree. While I was never a fan of them before, now that I'm starting nursing classes next week I went out and bought one by Jansport off eBay. It appears to be quite study and has plenty of space. Our textbooks are entirely too h...

I have Foundations lab on Monday from 8-2 and then lecture from 3-5. I'm soooo anxious and just ready to see what it is going to be like because I need to form my own opinions. I have Maddie for everything and I have heard a lot about her...some good...

i'm starting the first semester of an adn program on the 27th and i wanted to know if anyone actually uses nursing clipboards such as the one found in this link http://www.standris.com/medical_clipboard.cfm. if not, are there any others that you wo...

OMG, you guys are too funny! I can completely relate because I'm driving my husband crazy talking about nursing school. You know how you are talking to someone and they have that dazed look on their face? Well, that's how he looks everytime I talk ab...
