Excelsior A&P I&II same term

[supermedic513]

I just enrolled in Excelsiors ADN program. I'm hoping to start classes in October to get some of the core requirements taken care of before starting the Nursing Theory exams.

Can anyone tell me if Excelsior will let you sign up for Anatomy and Physiology I&II in the same term? I see there isn't a prereq for A&P II.

I emailed the advisor to ask, but thought I may get a faster response here.

My advisor would not let me take more than one online class at a time for my very first term. After the first one was over and they thought I had the "feel" for the online program, they allowed me to take more than one at a time. First term for me was A&P I and the second term was A&P II. I made A's in both and could have done them both in the same term. Maybe your advisor will let you take them both at the same time if you insist on it, but who knows. I only completed 4 of my classes online (5 including info lit), and the rest have been exams. If you really want to bang those classes out, especially before the July 15 deadline when the nursing program is going to make some seriously crappy changes, you might want to exam out on as much as you can. I'm also a medic and Excelsior has been great for me. I started classes Jan 6 of this year and I'm already finished with all my gen eds (including extra gen eds that will apply to my BSN)and 6 of the 8 nursing exams. I'm sure you'll love it too!
