   How to start OCC Health program?

   Rbeck911 replied to sara567's topic in Occupational

    Sexy male scrubs

    Rbeck911 replied to Betenhauser's topic in Men

    You know what, I feel you bro. What's wrong with trying to look good in your scrubs?! The dudes say, "Their only for function" probably look like goofballs. Check out iguana scrubs. They are great and form fitting but don't come in tall sizes...

    Excelsior Exams

    Rbeck911 replied to Rbeck911's topic in Excelsior

    Geesh, how many hours a day were you studying? 2 weeks seems pretty insane. I have read that some people pass all the exams using only the study guide and practice tests. Any thoughts on that?

    I just started also and picked up studygroup101's study guides. I bought the entire package for 100 dollars or so. I've had my nose in the first one for the last 3 hours and it seems very good. It is very long, but only the first 68 pages are cont...
