What's your schedule like next semester?

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

So I just finished rearranging and working out my schedule and I think I'm done. I have a pretty hefty load next semester mostly because I'm really pushing to try to get in by Fall (07) and my CC goes by points so I really need to squeeze the points in. I think I can manage.

My schedule looks like this:

Monday-A&P II lab

Tuesday- Com, & A&P lecture

Wednesday- CNA clinical from 7am -3pm, CNA lecture from 5-8pm

Thursday-Com, CNA lab, A&P lecture

Fridays I have off and I take Sociology online

I just want to know that there are other pre-nursing students out there that are attacking a heavy load next semester so I don't feel like I'm insane!

What's your schedule like?

I am a SAHM of three (2,4,6) so I take night classes. I am taking my last two prereqs...

Microbiology Lecture and Lab (Mon&Wed 5:30-8:15)

Anatomy and Physiology 2 Lec and Lab (Tues&Thurs 5:30-8:15)

I am a bit nervous about it but I managed Stats and AP1 so I just have to keep the faith :). Hopefully it won't kill me!

Looks like we are taking two of the same classes. I don't know about you, but I am really intimidated by microbiology becuase of what other students have said. I am hoping A&P II is similiar to A&P I....

I finished all of my pre-reqs but now finishing all of my co-reqs. This semester I am taking all these classes online: Pathophysiology, Lifespan Development and Algebra (not required). And I am also taking Medical Math and Measurements that one class meets on Fridays from 8 am to noon for 8 weeks (March-first week of May).

I am taking Psychology and Human Growth and Development online. Microbiology from 8-9:50 on Tuesday and Thursday mornings and Anatomy online with a Saturday morning lecture....oh yeah and I currently work 30 hours a week....I am going to have to learn to live on less than the usual 8 hours of sleep I get a night.

Don'tlet yourself get intimidated by Microbiology. I know it sounds scary but IMO its a very interesting course and some courses teach it by parts of the body the diseases affect like my course did (i.e. diseases of the upper respiratory tract etc..) and I found it difficult to learn them that way so what I did was organized them by organism and learned about them that way and it ended up being simply a matter of memorization--like in A&P only minus the physiology. Microbiology to me wasn't any harder or easier than A&P it's apples and oranges really but I found was a class that I value for the information I now have. Good Luck! :icon_razz:

Mine is a whole lot of time for two classes

Mon Wed 8AM-12

Human Antomy

Tues Thurs 10:30 AM - 1:30

Chemistry for Health Professionals

I am a Navy Wife and SAHM of a baby girl turning 1 on the 29th of this month(4 days after christmas). And I have decide to pursue my goal to become a nurse. I am going to be taking for Spring 2007:

Human anatomy and physiology 1 (Saturdays, Lec 8am-10:40, Lab 11am-1:30pm)

I'm only taking 1 class this semester, but summer I should be able to take more because I will have my financial aid situated by then...So I have 5 more prereqs to go after I finish this class for this semester.

The classes that I have Left will be a&p 2, microbiology, chemistry, intermediate algebra, college algebra.

I'm so ready to knock these out so I can apply! Wish me straight A's along the way hehe:)

Unterpleich-Yes. I am defintely nervous about MB! Although I have two friends who are RNs and they both *loved* MB and said it was one of the best classes they had to take. I am nervous about just trying to keep up with all the work they both entail! I hope that AP2 is like AP1 too. My teacher is the same and she is awesome, hard, but awesome. I did well in that one and learned so much so hopefully it is the same with both the other two courses :). Are these your last prereqs?

Blessedmom do not fret about Microbiology. I took it this past summer. Best class ever!! I think it helped that my teacher was a micro fanatic. She made the course interesting and fun.

My semester is looking pretty full just finishing up electives for my bsn.

Nutrition

Principals of Microeconomics

Algebra

Speech

American History

BlessedMom,

I have 2 credits of PE to finish up, but I figure those will be much easier for me to do during the program than any of the 'real' classes...

Shampagne007 is there anything that should be reviewed from A&P for micribio?

WOW! Seeing everyone's schedules makes me feel a smidge better about mine. My intersession class that I just finished in stat looks like it is a spring class. But I just finished stat in 5 days.

Then, in the real Spring I have:

M- Chem I

T- Nutrition, Comp II, Gov't

Wed- Chem + Lab

Th- Nutrition, Comp II, Govt

Fridays Physiology

I feel like I am overstacked and from reading the thread I am not alone. Good luck everyone. We can do it!
