Im sorry that u didnt get in the a&P class...what i recommend doing is check everyday to see if someone drops (people are usually dropped if they dont make payment by the purge date)

Also I am taking both chem and A&P in the summer...all I can say is if I can do it in a condensed 6 weeks im positive you can during the normal semester...i am pretty burned out though

good luck!

I signed up for Biology & Chemistry. I got Chemistry & US National Government.
I will also be taking Freshman Inquiry, College 101(both are writing classes).
So it looks like I will be taking Zoololy & Botany in the spring.
I still havn't decided which Fine Arts class I'll be taking. I'm not the artistic one in this house. Maybe I'll take Ceramics. Using the pottery wheel sounds kinda fun.
Then over the summer I'll take my nutrition class online.
I know it's going to be a lot of hard work, but I can't wait. I'm so excited!

Diddo on the AP2 and Chem 101

The A&P for Dummies has helped me so much!

Organic for Dummies is a wonderful book, and anything in the Lippincott Review series is good, as well. The Biochemistry book from them saved my life!

I second the suggestion for trying to add it during drop/add. Make friends with the secretary in the science department - they can look out for you, and maybe help you with an instructor override, if nothing else.

Is there another local school you can go take it through? We have 2 state universities here, plus a community college, and for fundamentals classes like A&P, if one place doesn't have it, it's a safe bet one of the others will let you come take it as a special student.

I will be taking A & P2 with chem and english 1 this fall. It will be tough especially with a full time job but the a&p professor i am taking i took a&p1 last semester so i know how she grades, etc. I am not really worried about that class. Besides i heard that a&p2 is easier than the 1st class. what i worry about most is chemistry. never had in my life. i tried to do an online class over the summer but had to drop out of it-it was too much. was only a 5 week class!!! anyways i finish a&p2, chem, english 1 in fall 09 then all i have left is micro and english 2 then just wait to hear if i get in for spring 11. good luck to you all!

API,APII, Chem are not that hard. The classes are completely doable it is just that there is so much info to learn. It is best to not cut corners when studying esp. with those three sciences. Particularly when AP and chem play such a integral part ofyour foundation for clinicals and pharm. I took AP before but did not really perform well because I was battling a chronic illness at the time. I got a B and a C. So I am taking it over and plan to get A's and then apply to LIU Brooklyn for Fall 2009 in the Jan.

I wish you luck and I know that you will pass because when there is a will there is a way.

I can only find the Anatomy for Dummies, is that the book you are talking about?

This Fall is A&P I, Nutrition, and Psych, this Spring is A&P II, Micro, and Developmental Psych, Summer is Intro to Socio and studying for my Entrance Exam. Which leaves me with a clean plate for Nursing School!!!

Good news! I was able to add the Anatomy class!!! So I am back to my original plan of having Anatomy and Chem this fall. I can't wait to start. Hopefully we can be a support for each other in the coming months.
