Nursing Textbooks
Does anyone know which textbooks are required/important?
Because I saw the textbooks list and there's a lot of books needed.
Maybe some of them are not useful at all/not going to be used?

Don't buy books until you go to your classes because your prof's might not even want you to get a required textbook, etc and you'll just waste your money

Wait till class, and Prof will tell you whats needed. Sometimes you will find even though the prof says "you must/highly recommended to get the book" it is 110% useless.

The rule of thumb is if you've used textbooks to learn the subject in highschool then you'll have to use the textbook in that same subject in university. If you didn't use the textbook to learn a subject in highschool then it can go either way.
