yeah, there are ALOT of classes to choose from... That's why I asked what people have taken... I was looking at World Religion, but the times it is offered conflicts with my work schedule... and unfortunately, THAT schedule is not flexible. I'm also slightly intrigued by "Fundamentals of Storytelling", but I also want something that will help me in my new chooses career... Basically reading a medical chart with dramatic effects is not something that helps move up the career ladder. I'm also waiting for a response from an enrollment counselor... I want to know why Spanish 201 is not considered a humanities credit when EVERY OTHER foreign language 201 course is...

OK guys, the program I'm trying to get into requires a Humanities Elective. I'm trying to figure out what class to take to satisfy this requirement, but nothing is jumping out at me... SO... what class have you taken for Humanities, and how was it? Thanks

Yeah, the test they are giving me is a course final exam, the only catch being is that if I have to take Micro, I cannot take the calss that prof teaches because I've seen the final and know what to expect. And yes, i was talking about Arizona State

Great... now I can count on "fear the click" I'm taking English 101, Math 120, Spanish 101 & medical terms... ALL ON-LINE through Phoenix College. Thanks for the heads up though, I would have never expected ANY of the things you mentioned.

Medical Terminology is not that bad. The book you using is the same one that I used when I had when I was in an RT program. It's a very good book. the only rough part (if you can call it that) is knowing when to use the correct term. By that i mean the same "English word" can have 3 medical terms, so you have to know when to use the correct one. I never did any of the on line stuff... but I think I have close to 500 flash cards...

I was suprised about being given the chance to test out of Micro also... In the RT program I was in, we did go over various spores, bacteria & viruses... but we focused more on how to sterilize things. So... i don't know if any of that will be on the test.

The Community College Program Director I talked with said that their waiting list is date of application biased, not GPA. Their only requiremtn is that you pass all the classes with at least a "C"

OK guys, My original idea to get into nursing was to goto a community and knock out the prereq's. Once that was done I was going to transfer to ASU and earn my BSN there. Now that is still the plan. However, the Enrollment Counselor I talked with said that ASU's program is GPA based (I knew that). However, he told me that the past few semesters, the cut off has been around 3.25. Anyone know if that is true? I'm took that with a grain of salt because it seemed like he was trying to sell the Community College program. He basically said my best bet would be to apply now for the Community College program, work on ASU's prereq's, but make sure I finish the CC prereq's. Now I did not apply for the CC program yet. However, he does have me thinking because I'm generally a "B" student. Aside from getting into the field a tad bit quicker... are there any disadvantages with doing the RN-BSN path Vs getting a regular BSN? Oh, if anyone cares, I'm taking Intermediate algebra, 1st year Composition, Medical terminology for heath care workers & Elementary Spanish I. that's a total of 13 credits. I'm taking the medical term class because it's 1 credit & will help pad my GPA. I was also able to get my A&P credits accepted from when i was in a Respiratory Therapy program. They are also letting me test out of Micro, but otherwise those are the only credits that they will accept.

I HATED pharm when i was going to school for Respiratory Therapy... but after bing in a Clinical assignment, I realized... You NEED to know you Pharm if your responsible for any medication distribution
