I will be taking AP2 and Micro in the spring.

Do you work or have kids? I mean, I think it depends on what else you have going on in your life.

I think you can do it! Last semester I took A&P I & II in the same semester and I made A's in both! I also took dev psych, music app, and Hist. I dont work either though. Believe me you can do it just set out your assignments on a big calander and stay organized :) Good Luck & I wish you the best!

I took A&P 2 and Micro together this time last year. It was definately a difficult semester but I was able to pull of an A and a B. I also have 3 small kids. I think that much work helped prepart for the first semester of nursing school. There is a lot of work in Foundations. It is doable though. Good luck to you.

It sounds like you will do fine. I will be taking Micro and AP2. I'm already stressing out about it and the semester hasn't even started yet! I just want to knock them out next semester. After I complete those 2 classes, I will have my pre-reqs completed and will be able to apply to NS.

I don't have kids, but I work about 35 hours per week. I know it's going to be difficult, but I am hoping that I can do it! I'm sure you will be able to also!

You'll do good, as long as you put in the time. Last spring I took A&P I, A&P II, and Micro at the same time, working 40 hours per week with two small children and a disabled husband. I pulled A's in all 3 classes, so I know you can do it.

Wow I am impressed ! That is a heavy workload on top of everything else ..Hats off to you !

I do wish there were some better prof for A&P at the NE campus but its ok I will either stay with who I have or drop and go to a different campus . May I ask where which campus you all attend and your prof ..feel free to pm if needed

It's due-able. I took Micro and A & P 2 at the same time, my load that semester was 19 hours (my son was about 2 at that time as well). If you manage your time you can do it. However, I didn't work.

Yes it can be done. I did it while working FT, no kids though. It's challenging but it was nothing compared to nursing school!

I took both last summer during a 10-week session. Each class was two days a week; 4.5 hours a day. I made an A in both with a little bit of effort. I didn't have a job, and I don't have any kids...so those classes, along with an online govt class, were all I had going on. I think you can do it. You just have to make sure to keep up with reading/studying. Also, check to see if they have any free tutoring or supplemental instruction sessions at your school. I tutor for A&P through my college, and it's free for students. Any little bit of extra help is always a good thing!

Good luck! :up:
