Hello everyone!
This is my schedule for the Spring 2020. It will be my last semester of taking pre-nursing classes.
Principles of Biology with Lab
American History or Intro to Government
Elements of Nutrition
Intro to Literature
Critical Thinking in Nursing
Pharmacology
Total Credit Hours: 18
I have no job or any kids, but I do think that this schedule is pretty intimidating. It will be my hardest schedule that I will take in pre-nursing, but I do think I can do it. Any concerns or advice would be helpful!

That's a lot even with a person in your situation, is there anyway you can take any classes over the fall?

You are nuts to mix in Pharmacology into that schedule. My Pharm class eats up a lot of my study time.

I'm assuming Intro to Literature is an English/Composition class? If it is, that alone will eat up a lot of time when having to do research and write papers.
Don't always assume Nutrition is an easy A. I had a teacher who turned it into an Organic Chemistry/Nutrition course and only one person in the whole class (online) got an "A" and that was because she took it before w/ her, so knew her modus operandi. I managed to get a "B", but I retook it w/ a more reasonable instructor at another community college and it was an actual nutrition course where I did get an "A."
I wouldn't do your schedule. I would break it up into 2 different semesters/quarters.
