So I want to apply for the associate degree in nursing at my community college in the spring. The only pre-reqs they need is A&PI + Lab A&P II + Lab The program curriculum includes what normally would be pre reqs, but in this case it is not required before you enter the program. They include English comp 1 and 2, College algebra, General Psychology, Public speaking and Humanities. Micro biology The school I am attending wants you to attend the course on a full time status. so at least 12 hours. I could, by the time I would start Nursing school, completed all this subjects already. As of today, I have finished English, College Algebra and Psychology. Do you suggest that I also finish the other general subjects before I enter the nursing program, even though it is not required? Like I mentioned, you have to attend at least 12 hours per semester, regardless if you have finished all the general subjects or not. By doing this I would be right at 12 -13 hours per semester and concentrate on the more important nursing classes and clinical's. How did or how are you guys doing it? I know it may sound like a stupid question but I want to make 100% sure I am approaching this the right way! Thanks for all help!
