Classes for next semester

I haven't taken Chem, so I cannot comment there. Stats is nothing like algebra and, for me, it was incredibly boring. Studying for it was really easy to blow off. But, overall, the subject matter is fairly easy. I think it just really depends on the instructor for that one. Also, make sure that algebra is not a pre-req. It is for the handful of colleges I have looked at. It may be beneficial to you to take a developmental math course. Nursing math requires a lot of the basics that we tend to forget.

I found micro to be a lot more challanging than A&P I, mostly because it's way more in depth. Most schools recommend taking 1-2 bio classes before taking micro.

Quite a few people I know would pair A&P I with Chem and then Micro with Stats. Dev. Psych is fairly easy, in my opinion. Do you need A&P II? That's another you could pair with stats. I also feel like A&P II is more of what you need in nursing school.

Are you sure you can take Stats without Math? you should at least take that class and clear out that F and at least have a foundation before you go into stats; I would add those classes with what you already have.

Algebra is not a pre req for my school's RN program. Stat is a requirement. I was thinking of taking a developmental math course as well. I do need A&P 2, I just didn't write it out because I can't take it yet without first taking A&P 1.

Yeah you're right. I can take Stat without Math, but I plan on taking a developmental math course before considering retaking that algebra class even though algebra is not required.

While Algebra may not be an RN pre req, it could possibly be a pre req for your Stats class. Basically a pre-pre req: this is why nursing takes so darn long

In my opinion, psych and chemistry were easier subjects. Just my opinion though.

in my school it is not a pre pre req for stat. as of now i enrolled in eng 2, A&P 1, trying to fill maybe one or two more classes. I'm thinking of doing Eng 2, A&P 1, and Developmental Psych. I will not be considered full time, but I at least know I can take these classes on without any of them suffering. These are all reqs for the school's RN program, and I need an A- in all of them to be accepted. What do you think? Sacrifice a "full time schedule" so I can get those As, or maybe challenge myself and add another class.

I need full time for health insurance purposes I think. Or if I plan on taking a summer class, IF I go full time in the Spring, my summer class is free of cost. How about that developmental math course to be added to Eng2, A&P 1, Devlp Psych? Good idea or nay.

So far here's my schedule:

ENg 102 [M/W/F]

10:30AM - 11:30AM

Developmental Psych [M/W/F]

11:45AM - 12:45AM

ANAT & PHYSIO [M / W]

2:15PM - 3:15PM / 2:15PM - 4:25PM

ANAT & PHYSIO LAB [THURS]

11:45AM - 3:15PM

I like that I have an hour to go over A&P notes before the class begins.

I would take full time so you can prepare yourself for the amount of school work for the nursing program. However, that's just my opinion. Only you know what you are able to handle and you need a high GPA. You're very fortunate that your school only looks at specific classes and not a cumulative GPA. Since you failed algebra, you may need to take a step back and look at why you failed. What could you have done different to get a better result, things like that. By remedying any study or time management issues, you will struggle a lot less with the harder classes.

There are several reasons why I failed algebra. The first was my break from school, I took about a year off and even before then, there was a one year gap between finishing high school and entering college. My math was rusty. The second, During the mid semester as the class became harder, I started focusing on the more important 'required' classes to get those As in them. My study time for algebra took a hit as a result. I tried going to math tutoring but it was too late in the semester. Luckily statistics is the only math class required by my school's RN program. Does statistics involve a lot of complex math? If so, I might consider taking a developmental math course during the off semester to rebuild my foundation.

I think a developmental math is a good idea. If you're not solid with the base needed for algebra, you might also have a hard time with stats. My school requires algebra for stats. Also, you'll be doing math in the nursing program. It's not quite algebra, but I think dev. math will be very beneficial to you.

I agree, I think it will be beneficial to me. Here's what I got for next semester

ENG 2

AP 1

Develop Math Course.

I need one more course to be full time. I'm thinking a class that is not required but will be beneficial to my education like a public speaking class, medical terminology, or a language. This way, I can definitely get As in AP, ENg 2, and at least a B+ in the develop math (i am striving for an A regardless, my math concept is good). WHat would you recommend?
