Yep turned in my Final today (multiple choice was confusing!) I think I did decent. But currently have a 89.2 in the class. It is my First Nursing Science Prereq! And I got it done! Hoping for that B but would be so astounded if I recieve an A-! (Im not the best at school)
I will be taking Chemistry this summer (going to start studying for it)
I am enrolled in Anatomy, Communications, Philospy and a Nutrition next fall and working the weekends. I may drop a class I am not sure how intensive Anatomy will be.
Is it true that Micro is the hardest of the Prereqs? I currently have a 3.0 GPA (math class bringing me down ) but should have around a 3.5 over all by the time Im done with my prereqs and general Education.
Good luck in your finals! to all of those that still have to take them (Spanish final on wens day)

Any tips on taking micro? Ive never taken it before. What kinds of things do you learn?

Me personally I thought micro was the most fun and though not easy, at least easier than A&P. A&P is not bad as long as you study and focus, I liked the lab a lot, lecture was a lot of information and concepts. I took A&P and micro together and it was very time consuming but you will probably feel like your fall courses are a similar load. Good luck!

I found micro to be equally challenging. However, I felt the first science courses were the most challenging, whether micro or A&P, simply because it is one of the first times you will begin to learn these processes. The science courses after build onto them, and will introduce new concepts.
Stay focused, learn it well the first time around, and it will be much easier to build upon later.

Micro was fun, a little challenging but nothing impossible. It requires memorization. The A&P i took was in two parts, the first part is all memorization (bones, organs, nerves, etc.). A&P II was mainly how things work, it included some math but it was fun, the hardest part for me was to memorize the blood flow from each vein/artery etc. You will do great with lots of studying!!!! Chemistry 1 is not hard, the second one is very hard. Good luck

I just recently finished micro as well. It is a tough class, but I didn't find the course as challenging as A&P. If you're pulling an A-, you should be fine for the other classes. Good luck!

Congrats! Micro was my favorite class! I took it after taking both A&Ps and I also took a basic Biology and Chemistry class to refresh myself for the TEAS (I had been out of highschool for over 12 years) and I think they all helped me do well in Micro (and on the TEAS)
Well the grades for the class Are in! for the final out of 150 points I got 145! giving me a overall percentage of 91% in the class. I got an A-! Im so thrilled! all that hard work payed off. I have an A in my history class now to see what my grade for my Spanish class is, (it is currently on Pass/ No Pass option)

Micro was a little challenging, I think mostly because of the memorization required.

Good job!
For me, micro was easiest. But by the time I was in that class I had already taken A&P 1 and 2 and chem. I knew how to study by then. My first science, A&P 1, was a little rough, and by the final I was bordering on an A. Ended up with an A, but, wow, I had anxiety issues that semester.
Solid A's this semster! Im so happy! Now hopefully I can do the same for the summer and fall.

I thought micro was tough! I got A's in AP 1&2, B in chemistry. And micro... a C. I hated micro and everyone else I know enjoyed it. I guess I'm the odd ball.
