The traditional rooms have lots of space. And you won't have a bunk bed. I did when I first moved, in but then I got it removed right away. There are no lamps. There's only an overhead light. The room is pretty dark especially since the walls are cream and the carpet is dark green or blue. If you have a lamp, I suggest you bring it, if you can. But if you're not planning on studying in your room, don't bother. There's sufficient light. There are bookshelves, and there are some on both sides of the room.
Whatever you do, DO NOT bring any of your books from college. The notes at CCOM are SOOOO detailed, organized, and clear, that you'll never need to use a reference. I brought all my books (big mistake), and I never opened them once.
I know that you didn't ask this, but don't bother buying most of the suggested books that they tell you to buy. You'll never open them once. (and I usually love to study from texts)
I promise you that the only books that will be of use to you the first quarter are:
Netter's (have to buy)
A colored atlas ------> extremely useful, especially if you're the type of person who doesn't like to go to lab outside of anatomy lab (Um....like me
). I used Rohen's and loved it.
Histology Atlas (have to buy) (you don't need the text too, but I bought it, and used it)
Mosby's guide to the physical examination (you will use this)
Lipponcott's Biochem (up to you b/c essentially you will never use it during the actual class, but will prob be used for boards)
