I'm looking into what programs I will be applying to for next year. I want to do an ASBN but need a program that doesn't require chemistry as a pre req. Any suggestions for good programs?... Read More

You do need to understand basic chemistry concepts as a nurse; I can honestly say it helps with understanding pharmacology and pathophysiology. I'm in an ABSN program and boy do they not have time to explain things you should have learned in your prereqs.

Do you really want to be in a program that doesn't care if you have all the background knowledge you NEED to do well in your courses?

I hope that helps. Good luck!

Agree with the person above. Although many people will say you don't need it, it helps. Its a fairly easy course (took gen chhem 1 and 2, easy to me if you study). I will say many of the students in my program who have the A's and high B's took chem or advanced chem. especially pharmacology when you get in depth.
