I just decided that I want to go into nursing. I am switching over from a Business major. Thissemester I took English 101, next semester I am taking Algebra/Psychology/English 102. After that semester I will be switching over and I plan on starting A&P I.
How hard is it really? Is it as bad as they say?
Also, I currently work full time and will be taking classes at night. When I take A&P I, should I take it with a language class or anyother child psychology instead of with another science, would it be too much?
I took it at a community college and it wasn't bad at all, I got a 95% in the class. I have heard that community college's "dumb down" their courses compared to universities.
Actually, having graduated from a 4 year university and presently taking courses at a local community college to meet the pre-req requirements for an accelerated AE MSN program, my experience was the opposite. University-level courses were easier, less rigorous. Maybe due to the more self-sufficient atmosphere at the university level--- I'm not sure. But I find the more dumbed down the course the more scrupulously the assignments are assessed. I took honors graduate-level courses while a senior which were less stringent than freshman level courses at my university, and all of my university courses were less rigorous than community college courses I have taken. The only exception I have found are foreign language courses--but I pick up languages easily so it doesn't matter which forum it is instructed in.
