   No problem. I love talking about it, (thus the really long-winded posts :-P), I remember wanting to learn everything I possibly could before it started, it helps pass the time whilst waiting for that letter. Most non-nursing program people don't seem...

   Yes. You are correct. The only night classes are at DM. So, let's say your first choice is nights/weekends, but it fills up before they get to your GPA. You will then be put in DM days. Now, if all of the DM classes are filled up too, before they get...

   You all will be getting a new version of the Potter/Perry book in your package this year, mainly because the version for my class, which is the current "new" version (until you all get yours) didn't include the answer key for any of the sample questi...

   I love reading all of your posts, I still remember how anxious I was (well, really, I still am, just anxious to get it done already instead of waiting for it to start already :-p) Don't panic if you don't see anything under your "My Documents" for s...

   Which professor did you have? Our class was great, a good number of us rec'd A's, although we had Town and Country as our hosp, and, while it wasn't HORRIBLE, it wasn't great either. Too small. Was looking forward to St.Joe or TGH, and then found out...

   It was definitely more difficult than the pre-reqs, you have to get used to a different style of testing, and retaining information. If you read the information, and study, you will do well. Most of it is common sense, but even so, in order to use th...

    Hey all! Due to some unforseen circumstances requiring a bit of extra cash that I currently do not have (aka..fuel pump) I am selling ALL of my books. These include the books that come in the book package AND books that you have to buy separately. So...

    Add this to my original post..I forgot till just now: The TB test is cheapest at Tampa Occupational. You have to go in twice wherever you get it done though, so if Tampa Occupational isn't convenient, the clinics at Walgreens and CVS do them for just...
