Just had a few questions about course requirements for admission into NA programs.
I'm currently completing my last semester in a BSN program, and I just wanted to collect some general information about the specific course requirements that I would need for entry into a NA program. I've done some research and found that most programs require only general chemistry and statistics. My question refers more to upper division science courses. Would organic chemistry improve my chances of admission to and success in a NA program? Are there any other upper division science courses (i.e. biochemistry, comparative vertebrate anatomy, bioethics, etc.) that you would recommend?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I've seen schools require upper division statistics course and for some reason they are very focused on your grade, so get an A. I've also seen programs require organic chemistry and physics, both of which I didn't have and did reduce the amount of schools I was eligible to apply to. I've been admitted to a program, but have yet to start.
I don't know if taking these courses would help in the program, but it will allow you to apply to as many programs as you're interested in, and help you get into the programs as well, if you have great grades!
Hope that helps!
