Hardest pre-req?

[fbrlauren]

Which pre-requisite did you guys find the most challenging?

So far, Microbiology has been the hardest for me. However, I start an accelerated Organic Chem class in a few weeks, so may change my mind!

Psychology is killer!

I don't mean to burst anyone's bubble but it just keeps getting harder! ...although many factors like semester course overload, and life situations altered my grades I would say microbiology = pharmacology , I regret taking those two together. pharm was twice the amt of memorization as micro, and micro was a lot harder than a+p 1 and 2. You can do it, just know how to prioritize , know your limits / go by your own pace

What does microbiology consist of?

My course had lecture; learning types of bacteria/microbes, cells... and a lab component; differentiating them thru a microscope in lab

Chemistry, if it's taken in the summer, but overall....COLLEGE ALGEBRA.

[slegarreta]

Im taking that now and i find it difficult.

I agree!

MICROBIOLOGY!!! I'm in my final semester of prerequisites (I didn't want ANY left when I started the RN program) and it is the hardest HANDS DOWN!

What's so hard about Micro compared to A&P? (j/w)

[Katieerin]

I haven't taken physiology or chemistry yet but I hear the chem instructor at our school almost everyone fails and has to take it 2-3 times so I am worried about that. So far my hardest class is Algebra. I am passing biology with a 95 so far I am extremely happy with that grade. I was always good ( in high school) with chemistry and biology.

[fbrlauren, BSN]

After this semester, I just have physiology left! So far, I think Micro is the hardest too! It doesn't help that everyone else in my class seems to have already completed A&P prior to taking this class, so I feel really behind.. even though a lot of other people have told me that the two subjects are very unrelated.

[fbrlauren, BSN]

The fact that Anatomy is almost purely memorization is exactly why I think it's the easiest! haha

statistics

For me, it was A&P. My speech class was very difficult for me, too, but that's because I hate public speaking situations.
