Roane State Nursing Students?

[beth66335]

I just joined this site in May, after I got my letter for NS. I was just wondering how many people out there are attending Roane State's Nursing Program?

I agree with Brittany micah, just enjoy your Summer! I was in the class that started in 2007 and we didn't even get our books until right before we started, so there was no Summer reading list. They had us cover a couple of the chapters in our Basic Nursing book (for Fundamentals of Nursing class in first semester) just so we could be prepared to ask questions on the first day of class if we needed to. You will have Pharmacology in first semester too, and that is where you will learn the math for your 2nd semester test. ( you will also take math tests in Pharm, about 3 if I remember correctly) Btw, if anyone out there wants to buy books from me I have almost all of them from school still, just let me know the edition you are going to use so I can tell if mine will still work for you. My Med Surg book is debound and in a 3 ring notebook, but it is a HUGE book, so it really is better that way. I just took out the chapters we were covering in class that day and put them in a smaller notebook and carted around with me, lol! I also have several Careplan books and some supplemental books I bought on my own to help me with the math plus NCLEX books to practice questions before each test. Good Luck to all who will be entering the program this Fall, as scary as it could be at times it was some of the best fun of my life, honestly! Some days on the floor I really miss it!
