AP1 and Chemistry together

Published

I am trying to take my prerequisites to get into Tarleton nursing and i dont have some of my sciences such as AP1&AP2, Micro, and chemistry. This semester im taking 14hrs which include AP1 and chemistry together and ill take the other two sciences(AP2&Micro) in the spring. I was just wanting an idea of how hard this is goin to be...

I did both last semester and it wasnt bad.

I did them both together and it wasn't bad.

I am doing the same exact thing! My school has Anatomy and Physiology as two separate classes, so I am doing Chemistry and Anatomy this summer, and Physiology and Microbiology in the Fall. I'm scared, but I am determined to do well. My summer session is 8 weeks for Anatomy and 6 weeks for Chemistry. How long is yours?

Wow, u are a trooper! Chemistry was a hard class for me, it took hours of studying to do well. I wouldn't take those two classes together unless you have tons of study time to dedicate to them. I have to get A's in my sciences, so I study a lot. If the programs you're applying to are based on GPA, then it won't be too stressful and you should go for it. Me personally, I couldn't do those two together :)

You are amazing! I hope you do awesome!

You're lucky though. We have to do Chem before we can get into AP1

I did A&P I and Micro last semester and Micro last semester along with pre-calc and an english class I managed honor roll. I think had I not had pre-calc in the mix I could have gotten all A's.

Obvious advice: Don't fall behind.

I want to say they are both 8 week classes! I talked to someone at my school and they said in those classes the studying isnt that bad but the lab practicals are the ones that really alter ur grade, if that helps u any! :)
