  7. Weatherford ADN Fall 2015

    I got an email from lippincott (the publisher for the book bundle....assuming your class is using the same book bundle we have) that all of their books are 20% off with this code WF07LCZZ just thought I'd share in case someone was wanting to buy p...
  8. Weatherford ADN Fall 2015

    If they are using the same book set as last semester.....all of your books are tied to the entire program....not a certain book for a specific class.... (if that made any sense at all) the books I used the MOST last semester were Fundamentals of Nurs...
  9. Weatherford ADN Fall 2015

  14. Weatherford ADN Fall 2015

    they do give you a credit you can use in their book store before the semester begins so you can buy books and things that you need....I miss getting it before the semester began (thats how TCC did it when I went there) so much nicer to have the money...

  17. Weatherford ADN Fall 2015

    Solid white (they will allow a small colored logo but that's it) and leather tops (so they are easily cleaned....if somehow you end up with bodily fluids on your feet they do not soak through) and must have a back.....that's what we were told at our ...

  19. Weatherford ADN Fall 2015

  20. Weatherford ADN Fall 2015

  24. Need some help with learning how to memorize.

    THIS writing things down is how I memorize.....I make flashcards just because the process of making them helps me....but I rarely use them again....I hand write my notes and I put together a study guide for every exam...the process of making it helps...
