Spring 2013

I'm done with all my pre-reqs and won't know if I'm accepted into the program until April. So, I'm working on classes towards the BSN in the mean time. I'm taking the following:

Statistics

Chem

Chem Lab

Phlebotomy Externship (1/2 semester, just have to get 125 draws in to get my certification)

After taking 6 classes this semester, next one will be a breeze

College Algebra I

English II

A&P I

Developmental Psych

US History 1 (required humanities elective)

Thankfully Chemistry is not a required pre-req for my nursing program, me and chemistry just do not mix together well, lol.

Spring 2013:

-Microbiology

-Nursing 139(Human Growth & Development)

I wish I could take more but I am only allowed those because I need Micro in order to take the 200 level nursing courses.

Chelsea...a lot of people (probably OFF the forums) would think we're crazy for taking two science classes. ;P

I know A&P II is going to be difficult...and if I decide to take CHEM lab....oh gosh, LMAO. I'll be in class literally from 8AM-8PM.

But we can do it!!!

I'm taking:

A&P 2

A&P 2 lab

Pathophysiology 1

Developmental Psych

along with two other courses .. one a 300 level language course & an easy intro computer course (program requirement)

almost finished with micro w/ lab, A&P 1 w/ lab & nutrition along with 300 level language course.

This semester I took A and P 1, Microbiology, Human Growth, comp 1, art appreciation, and public speaking . The art appreciation + public speaking we're short term courses so I am done with them. I'm maintaining a passing grade of an A. Many people discouraged me from taking all of these classes at once but I don't regret it at all . Next semester I will be taking a and p 2, comp 2, chem 1, world Civ, and statistics. I am confident I can do it. Little nervous about statistics

@kcoleman1 many people discouraged me too on taking micro, A&P 1 and Nutrition along with the labs, together .. my instructor even told me that I would not be able I do it. but I'm pulling As in all except nutrition .. getting by with a B. although this has been one of the toughest semesters by far .. but don't regret not taking them together either it opened up a lot of good studying skills :)

You can definitely do it! This semester, I took 6 courses, 4 of which were science courses. It's definitely do-able

I took Physiology, Microbiology, Microbiology Lab (separate class at our school), Pharmacology, Human Growth & Development and Intro to Health Professions. It was a LOT of work!!! I have 3 weeks left to go and I've got an A and each class and a high B (3 points away from an A!) in Human Growth & Development. Hoping to bring the last one up to an A with the final & my research paper. :)

You can definitely take 2 sciences at once. Just make sure you get a planner and write down all your assignment due dates. Then pencil in all the reading you'll need to do for each unit. Once you do this, you'll have a solid study plan and will know what you need to do each day. Makes it easier to break it up into chunks. As long as you stay on top of your assignments & reading, you'll be fine.

Go for it!

Fall 2012 was my last semester of prerequisites. However, the way my school works you have to do bridge courses before you do the actual program (I guess to weed out people). So for Spring 2013 I will be taking:MicrobiologyPathophysiologyConcepts of Professional PracticeHealth AssessmentWish me luck.....

Spring semester I’ll be taking:

-A&P 1

-English 101 (Online)

-U.S. History 201(Online)

-Critical Reading(mini-term)

I'm super nervous taking A&P 1 because I heard it was a hard class to pass, but hopefully my instructor is great and I’ll study my ass off to make a passing grade.
