HI im a newbie so pls help me..

i want to pursue ADN ( ASSOCIATE DEGREE NURSING )...HERE IN SOUTH SAN DIEGO AREA HERE IN SOUTHERN CA...

The thing is i already started my nursing course back in my homecountry(PHILS) for 2 sems in a internationally accredited school.. i already had anatomy and physiology, microbiology,chemistry,algebra,English communication classes,logic, sociology and psychology subjects taken...

I have 2 main concerns:
1) do i still need to take up general ed subjects? given that i have already taken algebra, communicatios subjects? and also i already have most of my science prerequisites?... i know it depends on the school but i just want to know your opinions assuming my units are credited..


2) i alreasy strarted looking up for colleges offering ADN course in SOUTH SAN DIEGO AREA HERE IN SOUTHERN CA...i tried seeing SOUTHWESTERN COLLEGE but the waiting list freaks me out 2YEARS! am also considering Grossmont, city college of san diego but i need more research on those.. can you recommend any good schools?and on how i can keep up with the waitlist thing?
