Should I take anatomy II over the summer?

Published

I'm taking a remedial math class this summer 3 days a week but I also wanted to take anatomy II . I got in a B in anatomy I last semester so I can't afford to get another B in A&P II, but I've heard a lot of good things about the teacher I would be taking. Also, I'm not the best at math so yeah.. what do you guys think? By the way, these classes are 7 weeks long.

I feel like A&P II is too important to take in a short semester. I took A&P I in an 8 week course, and it was overwhelming and I only committed much of it to short term memory. I took A&P II in a long semester, and I really retained it and I know this will help me in nursing school! I made an A in both, but I personally wouldn't recommend a short semester if it can be avoided!

You can do it but always remember that you need to retain the advanced A&P2 information to conquer your nursing school. I would say a NO because of the time frame and the fact that math is not your cup of tea. If I were you, I would have taken any prep class that is non-science and concentrate on my math skill, then take A&P2 in the fall. All the best and remember your judgment is the final.
