Which one should I take first?

Published

Well I should be done with all my prerequisite classes by fall of 2014 and hoping to apply to several Nursing programs spring of 2014. But here is my dilema.

I can take Anatomy or Physiology this summer and take the one I did not take in the Fall.

I am leaning more on Physiology in the summer largely because the Professor who teaches Anatomy in the summer is well..... Not the professor I would like to have. Were as I have met the Physiology professor as she stepped in to some of my Micro biology classes in the pass and absolutely loved her! she was very help ful.

But with all this being said.... This is real life and I want to get everything DONE. So if I have to take anatomy first I will.

So thoughts? Does it really matter? Anatomy or Physiology first?

((All in all I think I will do okay either way, this next semester I am taking Stats and Chemistry together XD))

If the college.doesn't care, then go with the prof you like. Seems like physiology requires a working knowledge of anatomy though.

Any chance you could take the classes both in the summer? Or take a fast track Anatomy class this spring?

Normally I'd say to take Anatomy first. In Anatomy you learn the bones, muscles and organs. In Physiology you learn how they work.

But in your circumstance I'd take the good teacher.

Make sure your school allows this. Mine required Anatomy as a prereq to take Physio.

Anatomy is a basis for physiology... Ya have to know where it is to have a better understanding of what it does
