   I think it's just the Calhoun ID. I need to find a holder for mine, too. I just got my ID the other day. You need a copy of your schedule for that too, so print your schedule, get an ID, and head over to the bookstore.

   alblove, I hope the bookstore isn't a complete zoo when you're there! It's the first day of class/first day of financial aid waivers, so it will probably be busy for a while. All the nursing books were along the back wall, and there were plenty of ...

   I'm in PTE, so maybe the messages are different. This is what I got (deleted the class name/time/what we need for first day of class stuff): "The reading assignment for the first week of class: Fundamentals of Nursing, Potter & Perry, 8th ed. ...

   The e-mail I have says that the chapters in the Potter & Perry book cover the same information that's in the first few chapters of the other book. I guess they included that info for people who already had the Health Assessment book for some rea...

   I got my flu shot at Walgreens Tuesday morning. It's this year's vaccine. Doctors should start getting them in soon; the pediatrics office my kids go to is starting their flu shot clinics in a couple of weeks. I'm planning on wearing my uniform si...

   One of the advisors in our room was talking about that stuff, but it wasn't for my group and I didn't hear a lot of what she was saying. I know she said earrings had to be studs, hair had to be tied back so it doesn't fall in your face.

   I'm not doing the ebooks. They're neat and the stuff you can do with them sounds nice, but I don't need them really. I've done much better price wise buying used and buying from Amazon and directly from Elsevier. I meant to ask, but forgot in all ...

   Fundamentals book is almost as big as the pharmacology book. It seems like a bunch of info, but it can be learned. All the nurses out there did and we will too.

    I got the pharmacology book and a couple others from the person who just graduated. All in like new condition, including the code. Y'all, that book is thick and heavy. She gave me the planner she bought when she started, she never used it. She sa...

    Hi Mel234! There are options for buying the print version through the bookstore, too. If you hit the + on the right side of the screen you should see options for buying new, used, renting, and digital. Lots of options. I'm buying print books, unl...

    The publisher website (Elsevier) has the Fundamentals book for $104.80 + free shipping. There is tax, though, but not 10%.

    I honestly have no idea where any of the authors are from, since Reddit is (mostly) anonymous.

    I think I'm getting my books from Amazon. :) Someone linked this on the Student Nurse subreddit, and it looks like it could be helpful. It's a Nursing School Survival Guide written by several of the members who have graduated. https://drive.google...
