Math Classes (Opinions)

Howdy All,

I'm wanting to apply for Texas A&M's RN-BSN program, so I've been knocking out the prerequisites. I'm in need of one additional math class. I've taken Elementary Statistical Methods already, but I need one of the following:

· PHIL 2303 Intro to Logic

· MATH 1324 Math for Business and Social Science

· MATH 1325-Calculus for Business

· MATH 1332-Contemporary Math

· MATH 1415-Calculus 1

· MATH 2412-Pre-Calculus

· MATH 2413-Calculus 1

· MATH 2414-Calculus II

So my question is, for someone that is really really terrible at math at virtually all levels, which of those would be the simplest to learn/understand?

Thanks so much,

~Zack

    I am one that enjoys math and am not too bad at it - so I would recommend avoiding anything related to Calculus. (I make it to Cal II and then realized that I did not like math THAT much)

    As far as the other courses, read the class the catalog descriptions and find one that most closely aligns to your current knowledge, math proficiency, and skill set. I would probably try to find one that was close to similar learning objectives to Algebra or Stats since you have already taken those courses.

    You only need basic algebra to calculate dosages. You will need statistics in order to understand and critique research. Calculus will never be used. Like you, I'm not crazy about math, so I would take logic - that would be useful in everyday life.
