HELP school A&P and Micro!!!

So heres the deal, I have TWO semesters before applying to the Nursing program at my school. What I have left to take is A&P I and A&P II, Microbiology, Nutrition, Human development and a random humanities course.. those are my pre-req's left... my question.. should I try to take micro with A&P I or A&P II??! My schedule this semester is A&P I, Nutrition, Humanities, and Human Development..... I can always switch it around to take things next semester if I should take micro with A&P I.. ANY HELP would be seriously appreciated..!!!

Well speaking from experience Micro is much easier if taken after A&P 1 and Chemistry, believe me it will make your life sooo much easier! So in my opinion if you had to choose with which A&P you should combine it I say with A&P 2... Good Luck!

Anatomy and physiology requires quite a lot of studying and I would say mirco does too require a good amount of studying as well. If you could handle putting in a lot of study time for two important sciences in one same semester, I think it is possible to do. If you want to add a not so intensive course to the micro, a and p that could also be another idea.If you do it that way then you have the other a and p and a few not so difficult courses left. I'm not sure what the I and II means, I took them as one whole semester separate course but I took physiology first due to seating issues then anatomy the following semester. The prof who taught me said most take anatomy then physio. If you have a chance for a seat take a and p I then II. Good luck in your courses!

Definitely would suggest micro after ap 1.

Take Micro after taking A&P I , some of the content will overlap and thus make it easier to grasp. Besides A&P I will probably feel overwhelming with a the new knowledge you need to understand and memorize. So give it its well deserved study time.

Good luck.

Ahhh thanks everyone, school starts monday my financial aid just released yesterday so I am freaking out trying to get everything straight.. You guys are the best thanks for all the advice!

Good day, Wvbabie33:

I am not sure I would recommend taking Microbiology with AP1 because from my experience, microbiology requires a working knowledge one gains from AP1. Now, with AP2 it is far more doable.

Thank you.

Anyone use a tape recorder as a study tool for A&P? Ill be commuting 40min drive. Thanks

A voice recorder is definitely your bff as a study tool. I used it to add more detail to my class notes. I used it in multiple prereqs.

Thanks for sharing:)

Good day, tasha92337:

Ask your professor prior to recording. When able, do record and then think about creating a playlist tied to an exam unit. That way, when listening (especially several days before an exam), you can just play the playlist to hear all of the lectures in order.

Thank you.

Awesome. Thank you :)

I took micro before i took A and P 1 made a B in micro and a A in A and P 1..I'm now taking A and p 2 and i swear its bringing back alot of micro.. id say take A and P 2 with micro
