As far as understanding, Micro because I was less familiar with the terminology.

Far and away the hardest for me was also Micro. I failed the first 4 tests and was ready to give up. The instructor sat me down, said that I couldn't quit and gave me pointers on how to study for her tests. The next test I made a 97 and the last I made a 93. Too bad I couldn't do that the whole semester!!! But, I think it was so difficult because she tested differently than I had ever seen. The class itself was one of my favorites, simply because it was more hands on than A&P. In looking at review guides for the NCLEX, I think that she was actually preparing us for the type of questions that we will see in nursing school!!!

I loved all my sciences so much I can't think of which would be harder then the others, but after giving it some thought I would have to say Micro was the bigger challange, so many new concepts for me to learn. I did love it though.

wow..so far it's micro....lol. I am the opposite.....I thought Micro was a breeze, and A&P was a horror show

What's "hardest" is difficult to answer because so many people are good at so many different things. I think if you go into any class prepared, it becomes challenging and fun. However, without a doubt, A&PI & II were the most challenging for me. There was so much information. I loved micro and chemistry, but I earned only B's in A&P, and by the end of it, I was glad for the B. And I'm even more thankful that I will never have to take it again!

I thought physiology was the most time intensive. Micro wasn't too bad for me.

Patho was the most challenging science course I have taken. It was a LOT of information in a short amount of time not to mention the 7 chapter exams! I really enjoy science though so I found it very interesting.

I thought that Chemistry was so boring. ugh That class seemed to drag on forever. Microbiology was very hard, but it was really interesting. A&P was interesting also, but it was definitely the most difficult for me. It just seemed like there was such an overwhelming amount of information to know for each test. I don't know that the concepts were necessarily more difficult than those in Micro, but the class was more time consuming than any class that I have ever taken in my life, and I have taken a lot of classes. I'm sure part of this was because I took it during the summer, but I also took Micro over the summer and it just didn't seem as bad.

For me, it was Chemistry, especially Organic and Biochemistry. I had the Org-Biochem at the same time as micro, and it made micro seem so easy!!!
