Hi! Spring Registration is coming up later this month and I need advice on which classes I should take. Next semester should I take:
A) micriobiology and A&P 2? (These will be the only 2 classes I'll have)
OR
B)A&P 2 now (along with psych) and just take Micrbiology in the summer?
I'm really leaning towards option A. I plan on working fulltime as a CNA next spring as well, so I'm wondering if I can pull off getting A's in both classes while working.
What do you think? Is this manageable?

if you have a study strategy down and you have a lot of free time to devote to studying you could take A&P and micro together. I took Anatomy, Advanced chem, and sociology together one semester, and while I had no free time, I still managed to get A's in all 3. In fact, I had one of the highest grades in all 3 classes so it can be done. But if you dont have a study routine down and not a lot of free time to devote to studying, I wouldnt take both together.

it can be done for sure! i took 2 sciences together (a&p2 and principles of chem) along with some gen ed. it wasn't easy, you won't have any free time, but you can do it! just make sure you feel comfortable doing it! and anyway, i'm sure the nursing curriculum will have a heavy course load so it's a good time to get those study habits down :)
good luck!!!
Thanks! I think I'm going to register for both classes (A&P2 and Micro) for next semester. I believe I can handle it.:nuke:

I am taking both Micro and A&P II now and working and so far I have A's, so it is very doable. Go for it!
