BMCC - Pre Req Class Schedule

Published

Hi everyone! First off, I love this site! Such a treasure trove of information.

About me- I plan on attending BMCC this fall (Hooray), and I'm trying to map out a decent schedule. I've been out of school for 17 yrs. and I don't want to get overwhelmed or discouraged. I work full-time, and will be taking evening/weekend courses. Here's the scedule:

1st Semester (fall 2009)

Eng 101

Mat 051

Psy 100

Che 121

2nd Semester (spring 2010)

Mat 104

Bio 425

Eng 201

Summer I

Bio 426

3rd Semester (fall 2010)

Psy 240

Bio 420

Does this look good? Do you think taking the AP2 course in the summer is a good idea? I understand the class is daily, and I'm concerned with 'information overload' in such a short period of time. Although I do pick things up quickly...I'm still nail biting over this.

So if all turns out well (A's in pre reqs/high gpa) when would I sign up for pre clinicals? At the end of the second semester (once my grades are in, and all pre reqs are completed)? Will I officially start the pre clinical portion Jan. 2011?

According to the bmcc calendar, I must register for the fall classes 8/21-8/27. Is that how it goes? I think that would make me a liberal arts major (right?).

Thanks in advance!

when you on the last semester of taking your preclinicals you can apply for nursing112 and at the end of the semester when grades are in you dont have to wait to the grades to be in in order to apply if you a preclinical nursing student...if librals arts you have to first change your major...registration is late for new students... once you enrolled you can register early like everyone else

Thank you SOOO much for taking the time to respond.

I've decided to scale down my course load until I get back into the swing of things.

Thanks again.

I tried to take a cross there and emailed them 2 weeks ago and was told that all slots for their science weekend classes were filled. Can anyone tell when do they open their classes for fall registration?

Fall registration begins August 21-27th, and classes begin on the 28th.

Good luck.

Does anyone know of a school that holds Microbiology during the winter break, its the only pre req i'm missing and i can't find a school that will let me take it at the sametime that i'm taking A& P 2 and I complete that course in November so I wanted to take it as soon as i was done with it.
