Ok accepted to lake Sumter and i want to choose my classes correctly for the ADN program however not sure how to go about it. I already have previous science degree so some of my credits transferred and that left me with 5 classes to take which are
1. Nutrition and diet therapy
2. Human anatomy & physiology 1 w/ lab
3.^^^^ 2 w/ lab
4. Microbiology w/ lab
5. Math for health related professions (1 credit)
Now I can take #1 and #5 online the rest would be considered a hybrid of lecture online and lab at school would it be best to do them all in the fall? I have back ground in science so will the science classes be considered hard or maybe some challenges ?
I love anatomy and such i even have books i still look at to this day however i know what one school teaches another doesnt. Should i space it out and put some for spring just to be safe?
Will that still give me time to apply for the nursing program i know its very competitive so i want to do my absolute best but i also want to be able to get in asap. If i read correctly some of the classes i would be done by Oct. And the others would be Dec. Plus a full time job, is it possible to complete all this at the same time?
im so excited i cant think straight

Good day, jasmine.rivers451 and congratulations:
https://allnurses.com/pre-nursing-student/how-get-any-846733.html is a very good read on how to do well in your classes. Based on what you shared, IF you are a 100% full time student, then #1, #2, and #5 for the first semester and #3, #4 for the second semester depending on how well you did in AP1.
Thank you.
Thank you! That was a big help

Are any of the science classes pre-reqs for another? At my school, you have to take A&P1 and 2 and Microbiology in that sequence, with A&P1 as a pre-req for A&P2, and both as pre-reqs for Micro, so it takes 3 semesters to complete the classes.
If i remember looking at the catalong correctly anatomy and physiology 1 is a pre req for anatomy and physiology 2 however microbiology does not have any pre reqs
