OCCC - Biology

Due to OCCC's ability to be understaffed where they need to be staffed the most, I have not been able to get an answer for this issue...

Since OCCC split their Bio classes for the first time, they now have a bio w/ lab for non majors and one for majors. I was placed in the Bio for non majors; however, my professor said that anyone with some type of Health Sciences major most likely needs to be in the Bio for majors class.

I'm a pre-baccalaureate nursing student planning to transfer to UCO after I receive my AS.

Any one know whats up with the Bio Classes?? Should I switch to Bio for Majors? -thanks

Yes, all your science pre-reqs for the bachelor programs in OK require the lab component. HTH

Thanks, I appreciate your help. Both classes have labs, I was just curious about whether I should be in the Majors class or non-majors.

Update: Yes, OCCC apparently did not inform their staff of this, and I was placed in the wrong bio. It is the first semester that they have ever split. Now I'm stuck with $200 of un-needed and un-returnable books, 1 missed lab, 2 missed classes. yay

Oh I misread the lab piece :) sorry.

Yes, I haven't had the greatest experience with book store/fin aid/bursars office at OCCC, overall though I like the actual nursing program and professors. But the rest can be highly stressful to get situated because it seems like the left hand doesn't have a clue what the right hand is doing. Hope you get it worked out!

I am so sorry you had to go through that. I've had so many frustrations in regards to the pre-req's/application process for a nursing program. I'm now living in the Oklahoma City area and will be applying to the various programs (hopefully one of the accelerated programs) next year. I truly think that nursing school will be less stressful than the application process was!
