I was a a biology major before becoming accepted into the nursing program. I have taken classes such as Organic Chemistry, Biochemistry, and Pathophysiology. If I have taken these classes before, will I have somewhat of an advantage or nursing school will be completely different?

It may help you better understand pathos, but I don't think it will give you a leg up so to speak. Nursing school learning is definitely its own thing. I got an AA and a non nursing bachelors, and I still struggled in the beginning switching gears to learn how to excel in a nursing program. Thats me though. Good luck in your program!!
