Yay! I'm taking my last pre-reqs next semester too. I apply in May. At my school we have a 5 unit anatomy class (pre-req for physio) and a 5 unit physiology class separate and then micro. I have already taken micro, am currently in anatomy, and am ta...

Hello, I'm currently a pre-nursing student. We have two full years (60 units) of prerequisites for the two year ADN program I am applying to in May. I'm almost there! I'm currently enrolled in a nursing guidance course where our major assignment is t...

Haha Thank you GrumpyRN. I'm aware of the word is actually used for, so I'm not disappointed. It definitely is a disparaging name for an English person used by a Scotsman. It ALSO happens to be used as a term of endearment in the novel Outlander. You...

Are you an Outlander fan, RubberDuckieLove?

Thank you everyone for such kind words. My class is taught by the director of our nursing program. I don't know why but she doesn't care if we do an in person interview, a phone interview, or an e-mail interview. It's a half-unit nursing guidance cou...

Those new shoes for nursing school sure put a spring in her step.

Anatomy Human life span development Speech Nursing guidance And food and nurtrition. This is my third semester. We have four semesters of full time pre-reqs for my program.

A term of endermeant in my favorite novel Outlander by Diana Gabaldon.

I have two whole years of pre-reqs at 15 units per semester. I've completed my first year and I have a 4.0 but am definitely feeling the pressure. Mine is definitely one of the get super good grades or don't get in schools. We have roughly 800 appli...

We have to take English, Psych, Sociology, Speech, Algebra unless you test out of it, Anatomy, Microbiology, and Physiology with pre-reqs of Biology and Chemistry. You get an extra point on your application if you take Foods and Nutrition. Same goes ...

If you went the LPN route you could try and find a job doing that before applying to the bridge program. If your application is based on a points system you usually get more points for work experience.

Do you know how many spaces are available in your program? Just try to remember that THAT many people would have to have done better than you. Which I doubt. Because your GPA is perfect and your TEAS score is great. Here's a quote from one of my favo...

I'm in Chemistry right now and I hate it. I love all of my other classes. Psychology and Biology and and English and Math, etc. But I hate chemistry. If I could pick one pre-req not to take it would be that one. But it's up to you. I wouldn't take it...

My daughter had surgery on Friday and our nurse was AWESOME. She is exactly the reason I'm working towards becoming a nurse. People have to go to the hospital sometimes. I want to make that experience better like she did for us. My daughter is five y...

I am in my second semester of pre-requisites and I have a five year old and an 18 month old. It's tough but you can make it work. I have a white board calendar in the kitchen to write important dates on. You can do it!

You just need to try another method. Try teaching others the material. Friend, parent, cat... anything. It will really help you. If you understand it enough to explain it to a child then you know you've got it.

I have two years of pre-reqs before entering a two year nursing program. I'll come out of it with two Associate Degrees. Were everyone else's pre-reqs that long? It's like 57 units you have to complete and then if I pick up another class I will recei...

Exactly! That's exactly how mine is too.

I'm taking General Organic Biochemistry. Chemistry and Physics are my most hated subjects. Today was my first class. It was overwhelming. My professor got his Ph.D six months ago and I'm fairly certain this is his first semester teaching. I'm relying...

I'm starting my second semester of pre-reqs on Monday. I have biology, chemistry, psychology, and anthropology. I took college algebra, english, humanities, and a required activities course (I chose violin) last semester. I'm hoping to get into inte...

I got a 4.0 my first semester but I wasn't able to take any science courses. I took English 101, algebra, humanities, an activity (we have to take two), and guidance. So pretty easy. I have biology, chemistry, psych, and anthropology next semester....

Pre-reqs at my cc are two years. Then it's two years for the ADN program. It would be four years for an associate's in nursing. So maybe it's like that. Pre-reqs plus a bachelor's could be six years total. I'm in Nor Cal.

Look at your schools catalog. My school only includes classes between certain numbers to count for your GPS.

Holy cow! My program requires so many pre-requisites. I just wish it wasn't so long. Especially seeing so many with so few. I'm nearing the end of my first semester. I did really well in all of my classes. Currently have an A in all of them. Two are ...

Okay so a little bit about me. I'm 22. I'm married and have two kids. The oldest just started kindergarten and the youngest is 14 months. I just started my first semester of pre-requisites four weeks ago. I only plan on applying to one nursing progra...
