Moving this thread from the TWU 2010 spring hopefuls for those of us who were accepted. This one is specifically for people planning to attend the regular program in Dallas starting in January 2010. The purpose of this thread is to lend mutual suppor...

So... what did you guys choose for your clinical sites for next semester? Does anyone know when we will find out where we are going?

Calling all J2's!!! Any advice on choosing clinical sites or who are the best clinical instructors for next semester? I am a J1 about to have to decide on my clinical site for the fall. Remember, no names can be given on this site, so if you have any...

Yes, Supersweet. That is actually what I was asking, sorry. I saw the calculation on page 95, but it is a formula assuming we already have the body surface area. I was asking how do we calculate the body surface area. I also googled it, and the formu...

Thank you!!

Hey guys I have a Pharm question. On the worksheet for pediatric, how do you calculate the body surface area of the child on the last question on the back page? Did she go over that and I just missed it?

Wow - That sounds intense! Thanks for sharing! Good luck!

Hey J2's! Hope your semester is going well so far! Anyway, I was just curious, what is your schedule like this semester? I am a J1 and just wondering what to expect in terms of hours in lecture/clinicals next semester. Thanks in advance for your help...

I can't get on the twu website. Is everyone having this problem?

I am changing my earlier stance on remote parking. I used it today for the first time out of necessity. It is actually not that bad. For any of you who park there - what is the best way to get to it if you are coming south on 35? Do you go all the wa...

anybody have concepts lab tomorrow? anybody get a clear idea of what we need, beyond wearing uniforms, and bringing immunizations and cpr? she went so fast today, i didn't really get what we needed to do to prepare for lab.

Concepts stuff is up. Kind of overwhelming. There is a ton of information. I hope things are explained better at the study skills lab on Thursday.

Does anyone else have Concepts up on Blackboard yet? I don't. I see the student nurse orientation, and already did that But in her email she said there was also a vocab test that we need to complete the day before class. However I don't see that up, ...

The softest scrubs I have found are Grey's Anatomy brand. Unfortunately they don't make burgundy pants. But I bought their tops and lab coat, and am very pleased with both the softness and style. I am fretting over not having my shoes yet, and also t...

Thanks Aggienurse2Be - I am for Dallas too. I do have the Pharm Success book.

Thank you so much! I will email ***** *****. I appreciate your help!

I was told at Majors that to get JUST the ebooks would be $600. They apparently sell for 90% of the print books' price. However, Evolve throws it in with the pkg. How do I get in contact with the Evolve sales rep to find out for sure?

leather converse sound awesome! i wear converse almost every day. i will have to look for those.

Thanks for the advice! I have actually already bought everything from other sources, but just realized that the ebooks are only available with the pkg. So now i am faced with the decision whether it is worth it to go through the hassle of returning e...

Hello J2's! I am a J1 starting in a couple weeks. I have a quick question - I hope you can help me. Did you guys purchase the book pkg from Majors? If so, did you get the ebook version of your textbooks (Pharm, NCLEX review, etc) with it? If you did,...

What kind of shoes did you guys end up buying? I ordered several pairs off of Zappos, planning to return the ones I didn't like. However, I didn't like any of them, and returned them all. So I still need shoes. Any suggestions?

All - Assessment info is up on blackboard. There still isn't a calendar or schedule with it though. Frustrating. I'd like to know which weeks I have to be there on Monday vs. Thursday. All lectures are online though. I thought someone said we only ev...

Thanks for the reminder Butterfly Journey! I had forgotten about that, but I definitely don't want to miss it.

Never mind. I had emails in my twu mail about cpr. I was expecting mail in my gmail account, since that is the one that I listed on the sign-up sheet. Is anyone else annoyed that apparently all of the other nursing students have access to our email a...

Hello all - hope your holidays were fantastic! Has anyone received info on the CPR class TNSA is putting on?
