Most Challenging Prereq?

[rednotebook]

Hi All! What has been the most challenging prereq and do you have any tips to prepare? Was it Bio? Chem? Anatomy? Physiology?

So far, its been general chemistry

Micro....and no, no tips other then hang in there...its rough

A&P 1 for me, and it isn't the content, just the amount that must be learned in such a short period of time.

Same here, because I took it in the short summer session (five weeks). Brutal. Got a C. But then I decided to do A & P II in a regular session and got an A.

A&P 1 aaaack! Don't take it in the summer! It's just such a large amount of information, and it's your basis for every other science pre-req.

Loved A&P, Chemistry, and Microbiology. Must say the toughest was microbiology. Took it during the summer, along with an additional class, it was a 5-6 hour course. Got out of night class sometimes at 10:30 pm.

Even though I loved it, A&P was the hardest. It was actually the first class that I took and is the basis for all of your nursing classes, so there is a ton of information to learn. I studied everyday for hours.

Physiology. My school has separate Anatomy and Physiology classes so we had all physiology content in one class. It was the hardest A I ever had to earn

It was definitely Chem? Can't even say the whole name, bad flash backs!!!!

Ap2 because our instructor had extremely high expectations. I'm thankful though as I learned a ton! Chem is hard in a different way for sure.

Math... all maths. Mostly because I found them so boring.

[Shorty11, BSN, RN]

Chem. Mainly because I found it boring. Sadly, even Organic Chem was more interesting that Gen Chem! (I have a previous BS in Biology with a minor in Chem so I have taken a lot of Chem. Currently working on a BSN). It was hard for me to want to study for something I found so uninteresting. Hopefully you won't be like me in that way! I was able to pull off a B though. Some of the Bio pre-reqs are challenging, but at least I found them interesting. Much easier to study for something when you have a genuine interest in the subject. I have always loved Biology.
