What were your hardest pre-req classes & did you work while in school?

Were your hardest pre-req classes?

I've been reading and have heard many say the A&P I, II seem to be tough?

What do you consider the hardest courses in the pre-req course load and did any of you take a full load and work part time? If you did work part time, can you share what you did for work and pay range?

I'm a Mom of 2 boys and I will need to work part time and I'd like to get my pre-reqs out of the way as quickly as possible, but don't want to overload with the classes, especially since I've been out of school for a long time.

All input appreciated!:)

I would say that A&P I was the hardest of my prereqs. I took it while working full time and also had 2 other classes. It's not actually that hard of material, it's just soooo much to memorize that you have to study constantly. I enjoyed it immensely though, and I got an A in both the lecture and the lab. It is possible!

Chemistry was the hardest for me then A&P I

A&P I was the most difficult to me (probably because I took it online in a shortened summer course) and the A&P I Lab was a doozie. It is a lot to memorize.

I did work full time while in school up until I started the nursing program and then I quit working once I started the program. If you do have to work once you start a nursing program, it is probably best to limit it to the weekends, at least, that is what is suggested from other students I have spoken with.

Where did you take your online pre-reqs and what nursing program will you be entering? Thank you!

The hardest for me was A&P I. I took that along with Eng. and Algebra. I came out of the class with a B. I didn't work, but I have a 3yr. old daughter.
