Hello everyone, I am in the RN-BSN program and potentially at the very end of it next eight weeks. I have three classes left - an elective (BUSN115 because I want to get my feet wet in that field) along with the two aforementioned classes: NR 443 (Community Health Nursing) and NR 451 (Capstone).
Would it be overkill to take these classes together? For reference I'm single and childless so time shouldn't be an issue, but obviously no one wants to lose their mind taking too much at once. I really don't think that the business class will be much of a challenge at all but that kind of thinking might come back to bite me!
How are the two nursing classes? Are they about the same as the others in the program or even more demanding? Hopefully they're just the same old "make a discussion post with a few small projects" stuff that the other classes have been.
Thank you so much if anyone has any advice on these questions. It'll be so great to finish up this BSN and move on to the future!

I only doubled up once, and it was a lot of work (also didn't have kids at the time). I can't remember which classes it was - maybe the leadership one? Granted, the classes have probably changed in the almost 10 years since I completed them, but both 443 and 451 were a lot of work in themselves. Both had bigger projects, especially capstone since it is a culmination of everything. I am not sure I'd throw a third class on top! I know how it is when you are SO CLOSE to being done, the urge to just pile it all on is extreme! LOL. Good luck!!
