A&P and Chemistry

Congratulations on pursuing your nursing career. It's possible to take both classes, but there are many factors to really know if its doable for you. A&P is a class that's weighs a lot for admission criteria and you want to strive for ALL prerequisites with a 4.0 GPA. Would you have time to study to get an A for two heavy classes? ( not saying its heavy for you but statistically most people say science classes are challenging) only you will know what you can and can not handle ? wish you the best!

Okay, thank you for replying and being honest! I'll probably not take those two together after giving it some thought, I failed anatomy and physiology once before so I will need to get the best grade possible to get accepted.

Your welcome Savannah! ?

If you failed Anat & Phys, then I would highly recommend you take Chemistry by itself. Don't even try to take any other class w/ it. In my opinion, Chemistry is a lot harder to grasp for most people than Anat & Phys. What I have noticed is Chemistry is where a lot of people tank and/or have to withdraw and take again.

Ohh my.... I see, I will not take it with anatomy and physiology then.

I am currently taking both AP1 and Chem. They both require a lot of studying but you can do it with good time management. It’s not easy but I’m glad that I am taking these two together rather than Micro and AP2 or Chem. You can do whatever you put your mind to. Good luck!

It is doable, but plan on dedicating a good amount of time to studying. I usually recommend no more than 2 science classes per term since I do not want students to get overwhelmed.
