Doable Courseload???

Hello my fellow nurses and aspiring nurses. I am very fond of this site and this is my very first post.

I am in my last semester of prereqs at the local community college in my city. I am wondering if this courseload is doable if I work atleast 20 hours a week as a CNA.

Microbiology

Intro Chemistry

Ethics

Human Growth Development

World Literature 2

    I took all the science pre-wrecks in one year to get into NS. I had already completed the majority of my Gen Ed requirements.

    In Fall I took Anatomy & Chemistry plus Nutrition. Three different colleges in my district.

    In Spring I took Physiology & Microbiology plus Interpersonal Communications. One course at each of same three colleges.

    I took Pathophysiology over the 8 week summer session with General Psychology. Two different schools, both online classes. Completed Psych in 14 days, didn't learn much but satisfied the requirements. Worked as TA for the Psych teacher for 6 weeks.

    Admitted to NS with a 4.0/4.0 GPA. All while working full time 40-50 hours/week at the hospital.

    Secrets: I don't have kids in the house. That is a deal breaker for multiple science courses.

    I also had great friends to study with. We sat together in class and everybody had a different expertise to explain the hard parts. Do not miss a single class or you won't catch up.
