   Thank you LovingPeds. I wish the best of luck to you too. Let's get this work haha... As for Lovinglife, Trigonometry is a prerequisite. And honors statistics isn't your ordinary statistics class. It is considered more in depth than the ordinary stat...

   Hello, I'm a community college student who's worried about my class schedule. The first day of the fall 2017 semester is on Monday 8/28. I am not confident in my abilities now that I think about it. I will be taking (in this order): Trigonometry, Hon...

4. Nursing or USC?

   petersalazar replied to petersalazar's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Good points. I'm learning! In addition, I'm in the honors program. However, I won't get priority consideration when applying as a nursing major. USCs Law school is superb as well as their engineering program. I'm a prospective nursing club member at ...

   Woah that's very interesting! Your story gives me hope. That totally helped shift my perspective. After reading these helpful comments by everyone on this thread I must say I'm definitely not comfortable being in debt. Unless if I were to earn an ath...

   Congratulations direw0lf! (-: I'm truly inspired to do the same! I know that it definitely isn't a walk in the park. If I may ask, how was your study schedule like? Is discipline key to getting good grades? And did you have free time? If so, how much...

   petersalazar replied to petersalazar's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I'm sorry lady! I felt the urge to protect my aspirations and such. I apologize for that. I really appreciate your concern. It's a lot of info to take in let alone the emotional distress by the thought of giving up my other aspirations. This is somet...

   I took intermediate algebra in a 5 week winter session and earned a B. So study! Make a study schedule now throughout the semester and stick to it. I'm taking 2 math classes and 2 science courses this Fall so don't feel alone in this.

    In other words, they completed their requisites while pursuing a nursing degree? So it is possible? O: Do you happen to know what grades did they earn? Because I am aware that med schools are competitive and is a different path. Thanks in advance

12. Premed or nursing?

    petersalazar posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

    Hello everyone! I'm a 19 yr old community college student aiming to transfer to a UC, Cal State, or even NYU (if I miraculously earn a full ride scholarship haha). I've looked up the prerequisites on a couple of top notch medical schools and I would ...

13. Nursing or USC?

    petersalazar replied to petersalazar's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Woah now I have a better understanding of how debt could hinder me in the long run. Indeed it probably wouldn't make sense if I pursue premed at USC when I could do that elsewhere for a much cheaper price while still getting quality education. Don't ...

15. Nursing or USC?

    petersalazar replied to petersalazar's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Nursing is the only major that interests me so that should say something about me. It's just that I'm so sad USC doesn't offer a BSN. I'm going for PAC12 schools if you haven't noticed other than NYU. Yes I know they're expensive. I thought about it ...
