Today, Sunday September 10, 2017, marks the last day of me being a pre-nursing student! Tomorrow, Monday September 11, 2017, marks the first day where I'll be starting a four year BSN program!
I am extremely excited for tomorrow and I can't wait to go through orientation and have my first classes and everything. I have all my textbooks, I couldn't get a planner, I have a binder and a pencil case that can fit inside it and I have my uniform.
I'm gonna get my class schedule, my 'bible' and other stuff tomorrow. I don't know if we'll have classes tomorrow even though it is orientation and first day of classes all in one. Never had that before and not sure if there will be time but...hey, tomorrow is gonna be awesome!
Based on what textbooks I was supposed to get, I'm gonna be doing A&P 1, Statistics, Microbiology and Biochemistry. A&P seems exciting and I have a feeling that it will be my favourite subject based on the stuff I see in the textbook but statistics and biochemistry gives me pause.
After high school, chemistry was never my strong suit (I know it's biochemistry but still) and although I passed the A levels, that was based on my high lab grade and multiple choice exam. The problems and equations were INSANE. I passed it though, thankfully but I am still not confident.
Statistics is the same as Chemistry but I did a bit worse. Passed it...well I passed A Level Math which had a bit of statistics in it. Took me awhile to understand it. Some parts are still confusing.
Biology is my best subject so far (no idea why since I love Math) so I'm confident about Microbiology. A&P looks exciting so I'll definitely have fun.
All in all, hopefully the first day, first week, first month and first year goes well.
P.S
Any tips for statistics and biochemistry would be helpful.

Congrats! Enjoy it - it goes by so fast! I took a statistics class recently. YouTube was my savior. Best of luck!!!
