Hey so I took pharm203 via leeward community college with M Tanji which was an online class. Like I said b4 it was super easy. I couldn't find the instructor that I took microbiology with :/

I took pharm at Windward. I won't lie, it's a tough class...but she offers tutoring. I found that I knew my drugs way better than the students who took the Maui or Leeward pharm. so if you want to learn, take Windward.

You took the online course?

No it wasn't offered online when I took it. And honestly I don't recommend taking pharm online. It's a really crucial class to understand for nursing. The Maui one is the notorious online one.

A word of advice:

The easy A might be your top priority now as you're completing your nursing prerequisites and fighting for a spot in the extremely competitive nursing programs. However, if your fundamentals are shaky you will struggle and possibly fail in nursing school. A&P, Microbio, and Pharm are the core sciences your nursing education will be built off of.

Getting held back a semester or dropped from the nursing program entirely is much worse than struggling through a tough pre-req now or retaking one for better comprehension and a higher grade.

In the even broader picture, you could kill someone if you don't know this stuff.

It's not about the grade. It's about learning enough to become a competent and safe care provider.

Thank you for your word of advice. May I ask where did you complete your pharm credit?

I took mine at UHM.

Recently, I've sat in on the KCC class as well and found it pretty thorough.
