I just got my reg date for the Spring 2013 semester and I got priority reg because of being in the Honors Program. I now know that I will be able to get into the classes that I was not able to get into before. I am planning on taking:
A and P 101
Chemistry 107(Biochem)
English Comp
This I think will be my hardest semester yet. What about you???? Let me know what's going on for you next semester:yes:
This semester I took A and P 1, Microbiology, Human Growth, comp 1, art appreciation, and public speaking . The art appreciation + public speaking we're short term courses so I am done with them. I'm maintaining a passing grade of an A. Many people discouraged me from taking all of these classes at once but I don't regret it at all . Next semester I will be taking a and p 2, comp 2, chem 1, world Civ, and statistics. I am confident I can do it. Little nervous about statistics
@kcoleman1 many people discouraged me too on taking micro, A&P 1 and Nutrition along with the labs, together .. my instructor even told me that I would not be able I do it. but I'm pulling As in all except nutrition .. getting by with a B. although this has been one of the toughest semesters by far .. but don't regret not taking them together either it opened up a lot of good studying skills :)
Chelsea...a lot of people (probably OFF the forums) would think we're crazy for taking two science classes. ;PI know A&P II is going to be difficult...and if I decide to take CHEM lab....oh gosh, LMAO. I'll be in class literally from 8AM-8PM.
But we can do it!!!
You can definitely do it! This semester, I took 6 courses, 4 of which were science courses. It's definitely do-able
I took Physiology, Microbiology, Microbiology Lab (separate class at our school), Pharmacology, Human Growth & Development and Intro to Health Professions. It was a LOT of work!!! I have 3 weeks left to go and I've got an A and each class and a high B (3 points away from an A!) in Human Growth & Development. Hoping to bring the last one up to an A with the final & my research paper. :)
You can definitely take 2 sciences at once. Just make sure you get a planner and write down all your assignment due dates. Then pencil in all the reading you'll need to do for each unit. Once you do this, you'll have a solid study plan and will know what you need to do each day. Makes it easier to break it up into chunks. As long as you stay on top of your assignments & reading, you'll be fine.
Go for it!
Fall 2012 was my last semester of prerequisites. However, the way my school works you have to do bridge courses before you do the actual program (I guess to weed out people). So for Spring 2013 I will be taking:MicrobiologyPathophysiologyConcepts of Professional PracticeHealth AssessmentWish me luck.....

I'm done with all my pre-reqs and won't know if I'm accepted into the program until April. So, I'm working on classes towards the BSN in the mean time. I'm taking the following:
Statistics
Chem
Chem Lab
Phlebotomy Externship (1/2 semester, just have to get 125 draws in to get my certification)
After taking 6 classes this semester, next one will be a breeze
