I only have bio 210 and 211 left I was planning on taking both over the summer. Would this be too overwhelming? I was wondering if I should take one now and one later.

I think this will be tough without knowing more about what those two classes are. At my school we don't have anything called Bio 210 or 211 so I'm not sure what those courses cover. Are they microbiology? Anatomy? Physiology?

What biology have you taken already? How long has it been since you've had a bio course? How is the summer semester laid out at your school? Is it a 6 week? 8 week? 11 week system? Do you have to have both done before you can apply to the nursing program? What is your projected timeframe before applying?

I am in the same boat 4 x 4 x 8 week summer classes AP 1 & 2. Deciding that or in the fall delay myself by one whole year!

These are all valid questions as they will help you to determine if the workload has the potential to be overwhelming.

In addition, will you be working while completing these courses?

I work 12 hours on the weekends. These are the only classes I have left before I can apply for the program. I am currently taking bio 101 it's tuff but I'm almost to the end.
