How many classes do you have left?

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

Sometimes I feel like I'll be doing pre-reqs for 2 years!!

Just wondering how many pre-reqs others have to do and how far along you are?

I have to do:

Psychology 101 *DONE*

Math 082 *DONE*

Math092 *1/2 way done*

Math 122

Biology 156 *1/2 way done*

Chemistry 130

Biology 201

The fact that I started on the bottom with the math is what sucks so bad. Plus I had no bio from high school or chemistry to transfer over.

My goal is to be done with pre-reqs by December 2009.

I'm getting my BSN then going on to get my Masters to be a Nurse Anesthetist.

That's my plan, too!

Well I don't know how many others just started, but I mapped out the pre-reqs for the school(s) I want to apply to and it's 4 semesters. Then, if i get in on the first shot, I've got 4 more semesters of nothing but nursing classes. Anyway, I will start working toward that goal when classes start again. Good luck to all!!:clown:

English (1st sem.) - Done - A

Nutrition - Done - A

Biology - Done - B (doesn't count for NS, prereq for Anat)

Chemistry - Done - A

Speech - Done - A

To Go:

Microbiology - Summer '09

Physiology - Fall '09

hi, zar,

are you at saddleback, by chance?? :)

This is my first semester back is 556567 million years and since I was business before, I will have:

* Anatomy

* Microbiology

* Physiology

But, this spring, in order to freshen up my mind, I will be taking:

* Intro to Chemistry

* Intro to Biology or Anatomy (I don't know which to take - please help)!

* Math

* Lifecycle (1 & 2)

Thanks for any advice on the anatomy/biology issue! :heartbeat

Specializes in Cardiology, LTC, SANE.

The last classes I have are Microbiology (which I'm not looking forward to), and Lifespan Development this Spring semester. Almost done! :yeah:

Micro is alot of work but I found it very interesting... I only have Chemistry, 2 ARTS and 2 Humanities and I am starting NS in August (FINALLY) :)
Specializes in Surgical/Trauma ICU.

I would probably think about taking the intro to bio class. Microbiology has a lot of pathways/cycles that you need to learn and understand (i.e. the Krebs cycle), and I found it much easier to refresh my memory on those after my intro to bio class rather than being exposed to it for the very first time in micro. From what I have heard, anatomy is mostly memorization (rather than having to understand how a process works), so I would think that it would be fairly easy to pick up the first time around. Just my :twocents: of course, having taken intro to bio and microbio but not anatomy yet (that's this semester :)).

I completely know how you feel. It seems to be taking forever. I have to go to school part time since I work full time during the day. I have been going for 2 years so far. This next semester I will be finishing up the prereqs. I have chemistry, physiology, and psych to take. The phys is separate than anatomy at my school. I finally feel like I am getting somewhere so I am so stoked for this next semester. But the wait has certainly been worth it! Good luck with ya.
