RN-BSN Not Requiring Statistics

Published

Is there such a thing?

I'm about to graduate this ADN program in less than two weeks and I've been trying to figure out what online RN-BSN program I want to go with....without much success. My head is spinning. Statistics wasn't needed for this ADN and I've never taken it. Any reputable programs that either A) Don't need it at all, or B) Has it as part of their program so I can just bang it out on the way without having to wait to apply to a bridge program? Thanks.

You should be able to pick it up at a community college. Online even!

Its not terrible, I’ve taken stats and advanced stats. WAY easier than pre calc!

I took stats a local community college while enrolled in an University program. Best thing I did for myself.

My Rn to BSN program has it built in as I did take stats, but they have it in their curriculum as Stats for Nursing..... ugh, so I had to take it. In the end, it was easier than the full stats class I took at CC.

Yeah I'm debating whether I should take it at the same community college over the summer (online) or just wait until I find a program and see if it's included.

I was misunderstood, for some reason I thought it was a prereq for some of these bridges but apparently it isn't. It's just required to graduate.

Also, ensure that whatever course you take it is eligible for consideration into a master's program. The college I went to offered a stats course, but if I were interested in their MSN program, they would not accept it. That is what ultimately pushed me into taking it at the CC.

Which RN-BSN program did you take this stats for nursing class in? Statistics is such a tough subject for me, it makes my head hurt and I’m looking for a RN-BSN program. Thanks for your help!

In stats the instructor makes all the difference in the world. My CC has only one teacher that has a good rating with "rate my professor", the others are terrible at teaching. The other campus has some very highly rated professors.
