what makes nursing courses challenging?

Published

I'm currently taking pre-req's at NCC and I am strugging with A&P I. I heard that nursing classes will be even tougher. What makes nursing classes the most challenging? Am I more likely to struggle in nursing classes if I am struggling in A&P?

I'm currently ending my first year of nursing school at NCC. I second what Hydakins said, in that "Its a LOT of info to learn in a small amount of time." If you are willing to make a real commitment, i.e. very little social life time for the next two years, lots and lots of hitting the books even on Friday and Saturday night, lab practice in your "free time", and willing to ask for help and reach out to the other students, you will be fine. I struggled with A&P1, A&P2 was a breeze.. I personally found that being forced to memorize so much for A&P1 helped me get down the basics of study commitment and has really helped me in the nursing program.
