A&P 1 or 2 with micro?

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

Hello everyone! The only classes I have left to take so that I can apply for the nursing program are

  • Political science
  • A&P 1
  • A&P 2
  • Microbiology

Should I take A&P 1 with micro and a 8wk online course of political science and take A&P2 next semester

or

A&P1 with psc and take A&P2 with micro next semester?

or

how do you recommend I get this done?

I would highly suggest ap2 with micro.

In my A&P2 class, we covered every system except the bones, muscles, nervous system, and skin. So, it was nice to do the immune system in A&P2 alongside human defenses against microbes in Micro.

Personally, I'd opt for the first option.

Knock out classes as quickly as possible.

I did A&P I with Micro last fall and I won't lie, it was difficult. I made sure to take two easy classes with them (Nutrition and medical terminology), because most of my time was spent studying on those two. It is doable. I have yet to take A&P II, but I have heard it is an easier class. Just FYI.

I just took micro and A&P 2 together and did fine, As in both.

I took ap2 and micro together last semester and they overlap a lot so those two are good together. Happy I did

Option 2 because...

A&P 2 & Micro both deal with immunology, so the classes reinforce each other.

Keep in mind that all these Bio classes have Labs so the workload increases more than what the credits which suggest.

I just finished taking A&P 1 and micro together and made A's in both. It's doable.

I took Micro, A&P II, and 3 other pre-reqs together and made straight A's that semester. It's extremely doable.
