RN-BSN Questions

[2010NRS]

I just completed my summer pre-nursing requirement so now I am officially in nursing school come the fall.

My problem:

I have to be full-time for a few scholarship requirements. My only BSN prereq's I still will need are Chem(basic) and Statistics. I have registered for Chem 1 to coincide with my nursing course this fall (Adult Nursing 1). Are there online RN-BSN programs which do not require these two prereq's? Should I take them with Adult Nursing 1 (Chem only, Stat in the Spring)? Should I wait and take them after I graduate and am working? Will I be able to take them at school after I start working or will I be so stressed from working that it will be impossible? My goal is to become a CRNA or another type of ANP for overseas missionary work assisting a surgeon in India. I am not a blind young hopeless student. Shoot it straight! lol. Thanks for all the forthcoming help!

I dont want to speculate or giving you advices that might jeopardise your schooling, try to ask your guidance councilor or even consult your dean with regards to this.

I am going through University of Phoenix and they do not require the chemistry. It is expensive, yet an excellent program. I'm 5 courses in and I love it. All on line. Its very easy to do, in the sense you do not goto class, but I spend quite a bit of time on line doing classes. give them a call

I don't regret the chem or stats as they were very beneficial to my understanding of later nursing concepts. I liked chem, though, and actually took some 18 hours of it (I'm a bit of a nerd). Definitely talk to your guidance counselor for the best course of action.
