Does anyone know which is the most important accreditation for an RN program? When I was previously pursuing surgical tech I looked at CAAHEP. But I think they only accredit "allied" health programs...

The only other info I know is that while I was at Keiser, several of the students were transferring to Nova and said it a great program too (I think they said it was easy to get into because you...

Thanks. In my case, at first I thought it had something to do with a math prerequisite too. But the class that was dropped off my schedule, NUR1142, only says: "Prerequisites: Program admission;...

How thick are the two volumes? This international one is just one book but 2 7/8" thick. The pages are super thin, a little translucent, so that might be a drawback. The manager at the bookstore...

I think the ones in those boxes in the bookstore are two volumes ($143). Not sure if this is the same thing on Amazon for $118. I got the international edition (UK) online and hope I can use it...

Thank you so much for responding. :) I was having a very bad feeling because this type of thing has happened to me before. In a few days the remaining slots will be filled and they will say "Sorry, it...

Anyone else missing NUR1025C on their schedule? I called the nursing department last week and they said they are still working on the registrations. But I found that odd because if you look up that...

Last year I switched from coffee to tea (green and white) and am really a fan now. It's a lot less harsh than coffee and has proven health benefits (just do a Google). Buying bulk loose leaf is a lot...

Is there a dress code for class? I thought I heard them say at orientation we only wear the uniform at clinicals. But how come I see so many people on campus in various uniforms? P.S. I came across...

That Allheart site has quite a selection of scrub pants (which I guess are similar?) and many come in white. I will report if they are good material after I receive

Not sure if I'm reading this right, but that Allheart site is having a sale in which you can buy both a blood pressure cuff and a stethoscope together for $7.20. I know that stethoscope is probably...

I don't know specifically about FIU, but I would make a copy of that exact course description from the FIU catalog of the year you took it and show it to evaluations at

Anyone know why they administered that "self-assessment" test (not the critical thinking one)? It seemed very similar to the MMPI which is used for a lot of law enforcement type jobs to eliminate...
