I also had to have completed a chem course before I started (which I had never taken chem in H.S and I graduated college with a foreign language major and didn't have to take it for that. Also, b/c I'd been in the foreign language program, the languages sufficed for the sociology requirement (which you have to have to get your license), so I ended up having to take that (I actually challenged both the chemistry and Sociology finals and luckily BARELY passed them, but that was good enough for me). The chem final I only challenged b/c I had decided at the last minute that I wanted to get into the nursing program, a good friend pulled strings to get me into it b/c there was a waiting line, and if I didn't have the chem, I wouldnt' get in at all, so I figured I may as well TRY; I had nothing to lose but a couple of hours. The prof. gave me the book and told me basically what would be on the test, so I managed to squeak by ).

If you have to take a diff. biology class than the other two I mentioned, it would just be a general life-science course I'm sure.

I don't have any bio yet...i just need one more to finish my prereq The guy told me i should be a translater since i have taken languages and gotten As, i just love languages! But im like no im trying to do nursing!
