Fun, I saw this book at Half Price Books today for $17.95. It's brand new and still in the plastic wrap. If this is the book you need, let me know and I'll tell you which store or I can go get it...
I was just gonna say look on Ebay for subscriptions but Fun has beat me to it. I know I got 5 or 6 (non nursing) magazine subscriptions for maybe $10-$15 for ALL. Jaxia, I have already scheduled...
Sunny, I'm not in yet, but if I survive the program I want Parkland's SICU or CV ICU at Baylor. I have my heart set on CRNA also. I have just never said anything about it up to this point.
Thank you Fun! Correct, Pharm and Patho are not required and those accepted for Spring '07 and Fall '07 do not have to take them as well. They just integrated them into the lecture classes -...
Fun, I know what you mean. I seriously can't imagine what I would do if I failed out of this program. I can't see myself doing anything else besides being a nurse. It has been a long road and I am...
Sorry it took me so long to post this. I went to the info. session this morning but was there all day (seemed like) trying to get shots, etc. and then I went straight to work and didn't get off until...
I went to Half Price Books this afternoon. I picked up the latest edition of Mosby's 'Nursing Care Plans' book for $14.98. I was pretty sure this was the same book that I had on my Amazon.com wish...
Does Pharmacology also teach you dose calculations or is there a separate class that teaches dose calculations? I just bought me a Dosage Calculations (2002) book from Half Price Books for $9.98 -...
Brianna, Is her first name Gina? On the Summer schedule it says Gina but when I looked on the DCCCD site it only had a Mark G. Thames as an instructor at El Centro. There was no other listing in the...
Has anyone taken a class taught by Thames? He / she teaches at El Centro and so far I haven't been able to find out much about him / her. So if anyone knows about this professor please PM me with...
Jaxia, Yes, I am going to the info. session this coming Monday (2 days). I was thinking the same thing. Not everyone will want to keep jumping through extra hoops to get in. I'm getting tired of...
I studied my butt off too for A&P 1 and 2! It just irriated me so bad that some people in my class wanted my sympothy and they weren't even working! If I can work 45-50 hours per week PLUS take...
I was TOTALLY freaked out about this! I just hate not knowing what's going on and feeling helpless about a situation. But I did find out that both are offered this summer. Both are offered online...
So does this mean that those of us applying before August to be accepted in Spring 2007 will have to take Patho and Pharm before we can apply? It sure does look like they would have included this in...
Jaxia, I also got my shot #1 and shot #2 at Brookhaven also and they were $32.00 each. I heard EL Centro offers all of them at a reduced rate but I don't know what the rate is. I am going to El...
Hi, I am in Dallas and thinking about Houston when I graduate. Looking for a great ICU internship in Houston. Is there anything in Houston better than Parkland in Dallas? Also, what kind of pay can...
I keep hearing some of you talk about Pharma and Patho. According to the info. packet for EC/NL on the "cirriculum overview" page that lists prereqs., support courses, and nursing courses and what...
Fun, You took Micro during the summer didn't you? If so, please tell me about it. I was planning on taking it this Fall but now I am thinking I might take it in the summer (I'm getting my plan B...
Sunny, Just to be sure have her call up to the nursing admissions and talk to them. Or send an e-mail. That way she has it in writing if they 'change their
Fun, I actually have that book already. It's 2nd Ed. and now there is a 4th Ed. out. I wonder if that really matters? I am also going to buy the other book. I just saw some on Ebay for $19.00 but...
