Order of taking prerequisites question

Hi Katrina, 

I personally saved my Science prerequisites to be done last in the following order: Anatomy, Physiology and ended it with Microbiology. Just to let you know, while I was taking my Physio class, my professor suggested that he thought it was better to take Micro before Physio because how extensive Microbiology covered cellular biology, virus and microbes. I received 2As and a B in my Science prerequisites???.  I took my math class before I started on my Science classes. Good luck with everything, you got this!?

I took them in the same order.  The sciences won't really be affected by the stats.  Micro before anatomy and physiology is a good idea for the reason stated, and in anatomy, you'll touch on physio as a matter of necessity, so when you take physiology, you'll already be familiar with the structures.  One class at a time allows you to get as high a grade as possible, increasing that GPA if your school uses it as points toward admission. 

Hi! I took anatomy and statistics together, then physiology and ended with micro. This worked well for me and I just followed the pre req schedule for my school. Straight As so far! Good luck!

took physiology and micro together

I'd take anatomy before the other sciences and math (algebra if you haven't done it and required) before Chem.

Took A&P 1 and Microbiology at the same time. I think as long as you take General Biology, should be fine with A&P. I then took A&P 2 and Micro probably helped with that. I took Stats many moons ago. There’s really no reason to worry about the order of Stats in relation to the health sciences. I have straight A’s and I agree with the above poster regarding Micro helping with the topics in physiology.

Hello, I am looking to take my prerequisites in the Spring of 2023. I still need to take A&P 1 & Lab, A&P 2 & Lab, Chemistry 1 & Lab, Chemistry & Lab, Microbiology and Statistics. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on what I should take together to finish before Spring of 2024.

A&P are heavy subjects, its best to save them last. Nursing Fundamentals expands the Anatomy knowledge, and taking them early you may begin to forget some knowledge.
