So I am finishing up my prerequisites in the next 2-3 semesters. Of the classes I have left to take 3 are electives. Next semester I am taking (as electives) nutrition and intercultural studies. Both I feel that both will serve me well in nursing but I am having a hard time deciding what my last one should be.
I was thinking any psych course but I have already taken 2 so really all that I could take would be abnormal psych and I'm not sure if I want to take that.
Any ideas would be great! I will be taking it with micro (and possibly history unless I take history next summer by itself) so something not to intense would be great!
I had "Spanish!" formed before reading the rest of the posts, but I wish I had stuck with it after high school. Didn't learn enough to help me but in hindsight if I'd taken it in college I bet I'd be better off.
I've done some more thinking and have a caveat to my posts about Spanish--if your school offers an ASL (American Sign Language) class that fits in your schedule, IMO you'd be silly to pass that up. In many places Spanish is already so common as a secondary language that taking a semester or two of it won't help you stand out in a sea of folks far more competent than you, double-so if they're native speakers. ASL, however, is far less common and depends on face-to-face communication instead of a telephone translator service so even if you could buy a few minutes until getting a trained translator, having that capability would be FAR more useful than knowing "Donde estas mis pantalones?" and "Si senor, yo quero tacos y cervezas..."
That is a great idea!!! I wonder if my school offers that! I will have to look into it. I go to 2 different schools so hopefully between the 2 one of them would offer it. Otherwise, I think I am going to do a another psych class.
My first thought was Spanish. I'm in the same boat with 2 semester of pre-reqs left and I'm going for my Spanish minor. It's on my "bucket list" to be conversant in Spanish.
