That is a heavy load for summer. But you can do it! Stay focused, be organized and manage your time wisely! I personally did not like statistics I took it this past fall and was happy when it was over. I am taking microeconomics now and it's my toughest class this semester. I am enjoying A & P II right now. My last pre requisite is Microbiology and I am taking it this summer. Good luck to you !

Jmaye15 I have to take Microeconomics this summer. I'm trying to find out what the difference is between micro and macro Econ. It is a prerequisite for the college I'm applying to and they don't specify the two. Now you're scaring me microecon was tougher than stats?? Yikes!!!

I'm taking A&P1 and A&P2 this summer. Nervous about the crammed classes ...
Bbsunshine I've heard of ppl taking those classes in the summer and amazingly enough they retained the information. You can do it!!:)

I'm taking a few classes in the summer as well so that I can be up to par to apply for the nursing program for the fall next year. :) I was at one school but was like "school is lame" but after being out for a couple of months and just working I CAN'T WAIT FOR SCHOOL!!!! lol

This is irrelevant but i made great grades in high school but i hated school. Now that I'm in college i have a higher appreciation and wished i wouldve had that appreciation in high school. I will raise my son hopefully to have that appreciation.

I want to take A&P II and Microbiology this summer. I would've liked to take a language course but I'm pretty sure these 2 courses will keep me swamped! This is my first semester doing pre-reqs and I really want to get them over with quickly.
My prerequisites are going faster than i expected. I'm almost done with my second semester. I try not to think it would be a.total of 3 years of school.

Nurse2b7337, I had to ask my best friend who is a finance major the same thing about the difference. The best way to put it is that Macro is the bigger picture, and micro is more detailed economics. I really don't understand why we are required to have it for nursing. Lol and my teacher said the same thing. But I chose micro because the teacher was supposed to be a little better then the macro teacher and we ended up getting a whole new teacher. And the reason I say it's hard is because considering I'm not a business or finance major all the terms in micro are like a whole new language to me and my grade is based only off of test. No homework no assignments just 4 test. Talk about the pressure. Haha But I would suggest taking macro instead of micro and make sure you can get a pretty good teacher. You can do it though!
Jmaye15 that's a great idea. I'm taking it online and her tests are untimed from Rate my professor! Fingers crossed!!
