Hello all. I went to Red River college in Winnipeg, Canada to get my BSN and subsequently got my RN for the Manitoba Board. I am coming to California to live with my husband and noticed that the California Board requires Microbiology with a lab component. At Red River College, I took microbiology but it did not have a lab component. This is because the course there didn't have a lab component. Will this be a problem for me to register with the California board?

They all have their requirements whether they require lab or not. I have not seen one that does not require a lab. while I was researching which program I wanted to attend and I always find they require labs for all the sciences.
