@ Mike A. Fungin RN - Thanks for your input! As I understand, it is a 12 panel drug screen. Not sure if that makes any difference.

Depends on the school I suppose. I attend a 4-year university and admissions goes strictly on GPA. We do not have a waiting list. If you don't get in, you have to reapply the following semester.

I have a Victorinox watch that is stainless steel, water proof, and has military time. Its the best watch I have ever owned. They are a little pricey...go for around $400 retail but look on eBay and there are a few going for around $100-150.

My favorite is a Littmann Master Cardiology stethoscope. The are a bit pricey but well worth it. I've also heard that Littmann Classics & Lightweights are good as well.

Learn your grammar and spell correctly. Could not understand a word you said.

My school is strictly based on GPA.

I have a 27" burgundy Littmann Master Cardiology stethoscope

Urbane Scrubs are a great choice as well.

For shoes, I recommend Alegria & Dansko Kelsy.
