Comparing classes and time

I found this class to be one of the more manageable ones. It's paper-heavy but lost of it is. Health promotion, holistic care of the adult aren't bad. Vulnerable, health assessment and especially research are killers.

I have been fine doubling. Research and history required many time comprises for me and I sacrificed the most. Tripling up was a bit much, but I was able to do it with less sleep and free time. Some people just don't do as well with doubling and many people don't. These are all accelerated courses and many are over 3 credits so don't feel bad!

I hate to burst your bubble, but the transition into prof. nursing course is one of the easiest I have taken at UTA. I've learned to pick out which readings are necessary to pass the quizzes and complete the assignments. If you read every single thing they want you to, you will be extremely overwhelmed. Use your grading rubrics as a guide. The coach's don't stray from them and if you addressed each section in the rubric throughly than you will make A's. Doubling up on the nursing courses is doable, but it is a challenge because the courses move so quick. Take holistic health assessment and research ALONE! Take your history courses alone or with something easy like art appreciation or medical terminology. British lit was a little rough for me too, but I took it alone. Any of the other nursing courses could easily be taken together with some detail to time management. Good Luck! You can do it!

PP mentioned a key fact - reading. I never read unless I was getting tested on the material...and even then I would focus just on the areas being tested.

Some courses require less reading so I did it. But, for example, when it came to Research and the reading was 230+ pages/week, I would literally look at each page to merely see what it was discussing. Took me ten minutes. When it came time for the quizzes, I used the provided blueprint and only studied that
