Brian thanks for the heads up and good luck with whatever you decide to do. Your email helped me, after I saw all the powerpoints from Ms Richey, I got a little nervous but she seems very nice.

Ieatbamboo, I am also in DM mornings And feel the same way. We do have lab on aug 20 Tuesday 6:30 - 5:00. I saw the 14 PowerPoints and almost freaked out. For awhile I seriously doubted even going through with it. But all we can do is take it sli...

DM mornings Ms. Richey has posted the syllabus, most of the info is there

Cbennett, shoes look good, they are all white and I think that's what matters most and that they are leather. Bamboo, yes you have to know how to do calculations at the top of your head

Thanks olioxenfree, I was afraid it would be more. I guess I'll be studying some more this weekend.

Yeah up to chapter 9. Anything above that is np2. At least that's what I've heard. Still haven't heard from my teacher

Within the first 3 weeks, I believe, they will have a calculation test. You need to know the 9 chapters from the med calc book. It's not too bad, you need to know conversions, percentages, fractions and need to be able to figure out drug dosages. ...

I'm also in the DM mornings and would like to know. I've gone thru the 9 chapters of the med calc so I feel comfortable with that, but do we need to read anything? They are having a meet and greet calculation thing at DM before school starts.

No I haven't heard anything either. Dale Mabry mornings. I have also been working I. My calculations, did get an email from the student nurses at dale Mabry about a calculating meet and great in the 16th. They did say it may take them awhile becau...

Just a quick question. I know that you have to have white leather closed shoes. But does anyone know if they can have laces. I looked at the uniform policy and it does not mention laces. Thanks.

There is nothing written anywhere about books or immunizations. The only info available is from previous posts or semesters. I guess we will have to wait until orientation to find out which thank God is only 1 1/2 weeks away. Our questions will fi...

Lala, if you look in previous posts there is a list, I think in March. Has anyone started the calculations yet? I started a couple of weeks ago. There is a lot to memorize and if you have trouble with math, I would start going over it. Also, is ...

I also graduated a long time ago and not in Florida, so I just went ahead and got everything.

I got my shots at my doctors office, all covered by my insurance. They did the titers and the tb test also. It doesn't matter if you aren't done with the series. As long as you started it. We also have to take the CPR class. It's good for 2 year...

They have a Hep A/B shot that is together. It's what I got. It's a series of 3 shots over a 6 month period. Also not included in your list is, tetanus if you haven't had one in the last couple of years, I got the DTAP. I bought a couple of scrub...

Congrats to all the alternates who got in, now you r no longer an alternate and we can all look forward to the same things. Can't wait to find out what campus we get.☺ Should be next month time.

I wouldn't use the ISBN number because there are different editions. Go by the authors name Joyce Lafever Kee, Sally Marshall. You can copy or paste and the book will come up. The books are super cheap and I got mine in about a week.

I agree with lala1717, gap is critical to getting into the program. I wouldn't suggest 2 sciences at once. It will take longer but you will have a better chance at doing well in your classes.

I ordered the dosage calculations book they use, Clinical Calculations with Apps, Kee & Marshall from Abe Books for $3.40, free shipping. I'm going to start working on calculations now because that's my weakness. The book is in perfect conditio...

I bought a Littman Classic II SE, thought it would be sufficient for school. It's nice and you can really hear out of it. Hope all the alternates hear something soon. May is here so hopefully you will all hear something in the next couple of weeks...

Congratulations to everybody who got in and keep the faith for the ones who got alternate. Like everybody says, some people will drop so there is a good chance you'll get in. I was in Orlando all day, of course, but I got in. Had a 4.0. Can't wai...

Well another day and no #@!!% letter. Ok, I'm getting annoyed now, haha. I'm the same, I just want to plan for the next semester so I know if I need to make other plans. I figured it would be next week, but I was hoping!!!

Maybe they are waiting for the budget to pass? I can't think of why. It is much longer than the previous years. But there is nothing we can do. I don't even wait for the mail anymore. I think it will be maybe next week or the week after. Don't ...

I got all of my shots already. Went to my primary care and the insurance covered all the costs. Here are the shots and titers you will need: DTAP, MMR, Hep A&B (I got a combo shot). Need Varicella titer and TB test. Most of you probably alrea...

Yeah, I think we are all frustrated. But they were closed on Friday, so I don't think we'll get anything this week. My guess, and it's just a guess, would be next week. I'm trying to keep busy, but it's hard. We all worked so hard, but it will co...
