Actually it is a pre req for microbio but it states "prereq: bio or physiology" and it's not a prereq for physio or anatomy, I'm just wondering if it is truly necessary

I took biology in high school passed with a B second semester but because of extra credit and stuff so I'm not sure I fully grasped it. Like I can remember cell division, DNA and RNA, prokaryotes, but I don't remember it in specific. Should I take General Biology in college to brush up as I know for nursing you need Microbio and Physiology or should I not?

I'm a freshman in community college. When deciding what I want to be I chose computer software coding stuff like that. Then I though do I really like this? I like complicated stuff and solving problems, but then I thought sitting on a computer everyday wasn't something I wasn't going to enjoy. I always had a huge interest for science from medical to physics to chemistry, how the world worked, how cancer worked, how exactly do chemicals react. I couldn't do all of that and I loved one more than the other I guess. For me it was medical. I wanted to be a MD but I don't have the funds, it's a huge risk, I'm very impatient. So then I looked at nursing. I'm a guy btw. Nursing was a good alternative because you learn a lot about the human body in college, you get to interact with people, care for them, even maybe become a NP not for the money but for the extra knowledge you gain. But going into this i didn't know nursing was considered a "female" job I suppose. I don't want to be that *******or *******. I don't have any other alternatives I think this is the best for me but I still have doubts and I don't want any. Any advice from other male nurses?
