What classes do you have to take for nursing?
Depends on the school - you can ask for a full list of courses that you'll need from the school you'll want to attend.

Anatomy & Physiology 1, 2, Microbiology, English, probability & statistics, general psychology, and possibly nutrition are the basics - depending on if you're going for ASN or BSN, you might end up with things like US history, government, chemistry, growth & developmental psychology, English comp2, a literature credit, humanities, public speaking, either precalc or trigonometry, plus some other awesome stuff.

What classes should I not take together so I won't be stressed out?

It depends on what kind of student you are: if you pick up on things quickly you could stack a couple of the heavier courses together. I don't suggest doing more than 8 credit hours of science per semester though - it's doable for some, but if it's not your niche then you'll set yourself up for failure.

Speak to an adviser at the college you wish to attend and they'll be able to help you mix/match your classes to suit your schedule & abilities.
