    I took Micro first, b/c schedule wise it is what worked. I find it tough, but only b/c my professor's tests are brutal. He asks such obscure information.
    My micro professor is like this as well. We take open-book online quizes after finishing each chapter, and some of the questions are the most random, minute details from the book. The majority of the exam questions are from the quizes. I just make sure to study the quiz questions in addition to my notes come test time!

    Hi!

    I am a junior in nursing school, and if I'd have to compare I would say taking 2 nursing classes has a study load like that of A&P and Micro together PLUS you add clinicals which adds a lot of paperwork time and actual floor time. You will be BUSY!

    GL!
