Comment on Which of these pre-nursing classes is the hardest? by Scooby

A and P is going to be hard.

I thought nutrition, microbiology, and chemistry were the easiest, especially chemistry.

If you had great high school honors or AP science classes, then you’d have the upper advantage with college science classes.

For me it was Chemistry, then A&P, then Micro. I never had to take nutrition. And I should note that while these courses were challenging, I still managed to get A’s in all of them.

How hard something is depends on how much effort you’re willing to put into it.

i think you might consider taking chemistry first. Im taking it right now and it doesn’t look like it could have helped me in my lvn program. you might also want to take microbiology first as well.
if it was up to me, i would take nutrition and definitely take A&P right before or during your nursing classes. you want both of this classes to stay fresh in your mind because you will study these things during ur nursing program.

Most people aren’t hired to teach one course - you’d apply to faculty positions in nursing or biology and teach other courses as well. You’d need a PhD in biology to teach at the 4-year college or university level (masters for 2-year college); nursing often depends on what they’re looking for. Here’s a site that lists current job openings at college and what they’re looking for in candidates. http://www.higheredjobs.com

Honestly it really depends on you.

For me i think i will have problems with microbiology.

I’m good with A&P, chemistry and nutrition.

When did you have problems in HS with the most in the science department and which one do you have the least knowledge in? These are the questions you should be asking yourself, when choosing the class you want to do first.

Everyone is different…always remember that.

Comment on Please help. I need a list of all pre nursing classes I should take before taking nursing classes.? by nerdorama

Look on your schools website to see what prereqs they require. All schools are different.

I had to take:
algebra, english comp, general psych, literature, A&P (combined into one semester, or you could split and take A&P 1 & 2), chemistry (combination of bio, general, and organic), pharmacology, microbiology, and developmental psych. Plus, any prereqs that were required to enroll in any of those classes.

It was highly suggested that we also take:
nutrition, medical terminology, body structure and function, and two of the following classes: english comp 2, communications, statistics, and a second semester of chemistry

The college near me… Anatomy & Physiology 1, 2, & 3, Food & Nutrition, Algebra 3 or higher, Writing/Reading classes at a higher level, etc. Each school is diff hun, so make sure to check with your school…. on their website or on the nursing application itself. And remember…. there are deadlines that may be months or even a year before you had thought they would be. Good luck and research online… best bet if you can’t get through with the school itself!
