Chemistry and Math for Health Sciences (Dosage Calculations)

[SunkissedRN2b]

Hello nurses (present and future).

I'm in the pre-req portion at my school and will be taking these classes spring and summer '14, respectively. Can you tell me what kind of math I should be up to par in for both? Math freaks me out so I want to be prepared so I keep my current GPA and maintain A's.

I was also thinking about taking the dosage class in collusion with the chemistry. Do you think that will be too many numbers?

Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the quick response CowboyMedic. I can't believe the dosage class doesn't require basic algebra (ie. percentage, fractions, decimals, conversions...).

It does.

You will use algebra.
