Over complicating this or no?

I'm a pre-nursing student, finishing up the science prerequisites for (preferably) Roseman University's 18 month BSN program. I was wondering if I should bother taking pharmacology and pathophysiology as both are offered at (somewhat) local community colleges or if this is just over complicating the matter and I should just do the sciences and apply?

    Hi LorraineC,

    Concentrate on fulfilling the pre-reqs for the nursing program of your choice. Pharmacology and pathophysiology are integrated in the nursing core classes, so it would be a waste of time and money for you to enroll on those classes before nursing school. Furthermore, you would not be able to transfer those credits to any other nursing school as you must take all core classes in one institution.

    If you just want to get a head start on the subjects, I recommend buying used textbooks online and read them on your spare time.

    Hope this helps!

    Thank you so much! This definitely helps to cut down on my stress level as I would have added an extra semester by taking pharm/patho.
