HERES A LIST OF THE REQUIRED BOOKS FOR 1ST SEMESTER. I WOULD RECCOMEND GETTING THEM ON EBAY OR AMAZON (CHEAPER THAN UNNIVERSITY BOOKS ONLINE), OR GETTING THEM ON THE ISLAND FROM NEXT SEMESTER STUDENTS...OLDER EDITIONS ARE FINE TOO...SINCE THE PROFs DONT ASSIGN CHAPTER READINGS...ANATOMY IS ANATOMY, HISTO IS HISTO ETC... THE BATES PATIENT DOC BOOK IS NOT NEEDED TILL 2ND SEMESTER...SO NO NEED TO BRING IT TILL THEN... INSTEAD OF THE NETTERS ATLAS FOR ANATOMY, I WOULD RECOMEND AN ATLAS BY McMINNS, SINCE IT SHOWS "REAL " PICS..

I ALSO HIGHLY RECOMMEND BUYING THE BOARD REVIEW SERIES (BRS) BOOKS FOR ANATOMY, HISTOLOGY, AND EMBRYOLOGY. IT WILL BE NEEDED TO STUDY FROM FOR THE SHELF (1 SEMES FINALS).

GOOD LUCK AND TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOUR TIME OFF BEFORE YOU GET HERE.
