What courses will you have to take to be a nurse?

Answer 1

You need to study all the sciences like chemistry and Biology. Then math, English so you will be prepared for the school of nursing, whether a four year college with a B.S degree, a two year college for an associate degree, a three diploma shchool that is located in a hospital or contracted under hospital management. ThHese will earn you an RN. THen you have to pass the Board of Nursing tests to become licensed.

Answer 2

Check into your local community college/technical college. Some examples of classes you would need to take would be Anatomy and Physiology, Medical Terminology, Pharmacology, and lots of classes in nursing theory. If you are seeking to enter a college to major in nursing, you probably need high school level biology and chemistry as pre-requisites. Also, expect to have to take a CPR class for the medical professional, which is usually a Basic Life Support course with training in Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) Some states are now requiring nursing students to take the Basic Nursing or Nursing Assistant courses, and completing the state Nursing Assistant Certification testing before going further in the program. This is a good way to learn basic skills in caring for people, and can be a good way to rule out whether you really want to pursue a career in nursing or not.

Answer 3

To graduate with a BSN you need 1 year Anatomy & Physiology, pharmacology, pathophysiology, general, organic and biochemistry, general psych, developmental psych, abnormal psych, microbiology, health care informatics, comm, sociology, statistics PLUS all the Nursing classes/labs/Clinicals! Study hard!

Answer 4

The courses u have to take to become a nurse are mathematics, biology and chemistry. To become a nurse u have to take pharmacology course, and also General nurse course is full of biology. And to be a nurse u're also going to need Chemistry.

Answer 5

First, the associate's in nursing is typically an associate's of science (AS). There are some community colleges that do offer an AS in nursing. Courses included - in general - are as follows. * Human Anatomy and Physiology I and II * Microbiology * Chemistry (inorganic and organic and biochemistry) * English Composition I and II * General Psychology * Principles of Sociology * Humanities Electives The above are general education requirements. The professional phase courses are: * Nursing I * Nursing II * Nursing III * Nursing IV Each college may have its own curriculum layout. In addition, nursing programs today are somewhat competitive. You should contact the community college and request information on their admissions requirements. Start, with your home county community college. If they do not offer the program, then check with the surrounding counties.

In addition, the cost of a nursing program is expensive compared to other associate degree programs. It is not the tuition as such, but the clinical fees that brings the cost up. Make sure you have your finances in order, and make sure you apply for financial aid assistance if needed.

Lastly, many individuals are going into nursing programs today. In comparison, only a few graduate because of the intensity of the clinical phase. The reason is that they take too much of a credit load. For example, one community college I know of combines Nursing I with Human Anatomy and Physiology II in the same semester. This is too much for most students. I would strongly recommend you complete all of your critical science courses first, and as much of the other general education courses as possible before going on to your professional phase nursing coursework. When you start the nursing courses, you want to concentrate on nursing, and just nursing. This will give you a better chance of completing the program in good form.

Answer 6

Nursing includes anatomy, physiology, psychology and abnormal psychology, mathematics, and courses that focus on nursing skills. While it seems overwhelming to think about, each student begins at a high school level and progresses through course work, building new skills from old skills. You will need to study intensely, but a nursing degree can be achieved.
