Has anyone recently finished to Tamucc Nursing 4322 health alterations class?
I am looking to buy the book Pathophysiology: concepts of altered health states, 7th edition. Philadelphia: Lippincott.
Thanks!

Try looking on half.com or Ebay- you should be able to find the book that you need there at a decent price.

I wanted to know about the TAMUCC nursing program. Has anyone been through the program? I have a BA and wanted to go the route of accelerated BSN hopefully next year since the 1 year of nursing school i just put in is losing there accreditation due to low board scores. But Im over it, how many student do they take? is it very hard to get in? I have the pre courses done minus the math and a year of nursing school under my belt but not holding my breath on any of them transfering. any news would be great, I've never been to CC and hear its nice. Are the Instructors good like do they have office hours they keep to and willing to help you pass? whats the grading scale like, do they just grade on tests? my former nursing school, we needed a 83% to pass since our test scores were low and it was just graded on tests. We didnt use ATI, although they would have us just take it as practice. the instructors wrote their own ugly test questions that were harder then NCLEX, which was bull since nclex questions were easy. any info would be helpful

Hey I have the Health Alterations book. Feel free to private message me, good luck with the program!
And for "ruacte"...I am in the home stretch of the accelerated BSN program at tamucc. Lol..umm...overall I would say it's decent. It's been a strange trip since we were the first class to go 14 months (summer to summer), it used to be August to next December. Soo they had a lot of adjusting and experimenting going on, often at the expense of us students. Most of the tests are HESI, which are standardized, it's NCLEX style but more challenging. They are hard but if you study your behind off manageable to pass or even ace. 75 is passing, 90-100 A, 83-89 B. Overall I don't regret coming here and have enjoyed Corpus and the people I have met.
