   CherryRed23 replied to brielle776's topic in General Students

   I'm required to have it as well but I'm in an ADN program. I vaguely recall them stating that it's a new requirement...but I really didn't pay attention to that part cause my husband carries insurance. Good luck!

2. Please help me...Do you think I'll get kicked out of nursing school?

3. Do you actually READ your nursing books or just skim?

9. lecture notes or nclex review book?

   CherryRed23 replied to Ugly Duckling's topic in General Students

   Wait though! Saunders is coming out with a new edition that is set to release on Oct 15, 2010. They just changed over the nclex test, so it's probably not a bad idea to have the new edition. If you don't mind paying the price of the new one, then ...
