Class Schedule Suggestions??

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

I am about to start my prerequisites this fall and I would love your suggestions on how to line up these classes over the next few semesters.

What do you recommend taking first?

Any classes that you found really helpful to take together?

Any you would absolutely avoid taking during the same semester?

These are the courses I need to complete:

A&P I

A&P II

Life science

Microbiology health and disease

Intro to psychology

Professional communication (ENG)

Comp I & II (ENG)

Depends a bit on what you currently know and your past science background. If you haven't had life sciences in a while, I'd probably start with that since it sounds like the basic level course. I would probably just try to pair up science classes with easier classes. Depending on how many semesters you want to complete these in, you may need to do two science courses at once.

I was rushing trying to register before all classes were filled and registered for Psy and Eng without actually thinking it through. Kind of upset kind of not, because prior to, I hadn't been in school in 10 years, so maybe It happened that way to really prepare me for the real deal classes in the winter semester.

Thanks for replying!! Out of 106 nosey people you were the only one that wasn't nosey but wanted to help that replied. I appreciate that because I was really struggling lol

When doing my prerequisites, I tried to limit the amount of science classes I took to one a quarter.

I'm not exactly sure what life science is, but it sounds like a less intensive course than A&P or micro. I would probably do my schedule like this:

A&P I

Psych

English I

A&P II

Comms

English II

Microbiology

Life Sciences

The first semester I wouldn't do much, I would see what I can handle first and get adjusted to school life again. I suggest just do a life science and psych or ap1 and english just to start. Plus you want the best grades you can recieve, Good luck on your journey!!!

😊Wow, so long ago currently an RN registering for my BSN. I applaud you girl for never giving up!! 💪🏽
