Chamberlain College which classes to take

Published

Specializes in FNP.

I will be taking nursing assessment, and ecomnomics together for spring A. Thinking of taking another class either statistics or another nursing class. I would like some input if I should or just wait and double up maybe in the summer. Which nursing classes don't require a lot of papers and how is statistics should it be taken when I take just one courses. Any help would be great.

Health Assessment and Econ were both pretty reading/writing heavy themselves ... unless you're not working, I wouldn't add more to them.

I'm doing Econ and the Capstone for the Spring A term and Econ looks pretty involved. If I had to load another one on top of econ and health assessment, I'd consider Collaborative healthcare if I was you. It is the management/leadership course and it was not bad. I would not do Stats, it is a hard class, even if you have really solid math skills because it goes so fast.

Yeah, I just finished Collaborative Healthcare (NR446) and Information Systems for Healthcare (NR448), and they went very well together. Collaborative Healthcare was definitely the lighter of the two! Info Systems had a paper that was worth 40% of the final grade. YIKES.

Information systems for healthcare was a tougher class but it sets you up nicely for Evidenced based practice which I found to be a heavy class too. There is quite a bit of work in evidenced based practice, 3 of the weeks you have a quiz and a paper, 2 other weeks you have papers so it is pretty involved.

I'm doing Econ and the Capstone together, I'm a little nervous, the Capstone looks like it is very involved and the Econ looks like it is too. I'm almost wondering if I should of done the capstone for Spring term A and Econ for Spring term B but I'm so eager to be done!

I was an Econ idiot, prior to taking the class, so I had to really bust my tail to keep up with that one! It wasn't too bad, but I took it by itself.

I just looked at the EBP syllabus ... lots of stuff!! But I was hoping info systems was a good introduction for it. :) Glad I'm taking it by itself, it should be manageable.

Thanks for all the input. I ended up calling the college an advisor said in order for me to graduate in Oct I had to take health assessment and statistics, then NR 442 and NR 448 and history for spring B . For summer A NR 449 and NR446 then capstone and economics summer B.

The statistics scares me a little is it hard ? Any pointers from those who have taken it? It would be great thanks for all the input.
