Is Nutrition course really the hardest course?

Hi guys,

I'm taking Nutrition online in 8 weeks during Spring. All my friends say it's the hardest course they've ever taken no matter which professor I choose; even harder that A&P and Micro.

Is there any way I can go over the course material before to see if I am able of taking it in 8 weeks and online or not? I checked Youtube and I couldn't find anything.

what was your experience with Nutrition course? was it really hard and time consuming?

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to make an update. I took the nutrition course online in 8 weeks right after I had my second baby. There was a lot of details, but I agree with all the previous posts. The course was not hard at all. I easily got an A even though my personal life was kinda messed up that semester. The course was actually very interesting and the information was useful.

You're very lucky. My nutrition class was akin to an Organic Chemistry course. It was horrible. If I wanted an O-Chem course, I would've taken one. LOL I ended up w/ a solid B, but had she curved the grades, it would've been a definite A.

Congratulations, though!

Thank you!

WOW!! organic chem! I can't even imagine that. I took nutrition right after A&P and Micro, and there were some information in the book that I already went over them in those courses.

I took nutrition online over summer at my local cc and it was not hard. I had to put some time into it but it was not the hardest prereq! If you happened to have already taken chem or A&P it'll be a breeze, but you don't need those classes first to do well in nutrition. Good luck!

I loved my Nutrition class and I finished up with a 99%. But I am also highly interested in nutrition as well. For me it wasn't a struggle at all, but it was also enjoyable for me to study since I already had an interest.
