What classes should i take in high school if i want to major in nursing in college?

Question

i heard that these are the classes you should take in high school:

biology (already took it)

chemistry (already took it)

physics

algebra (already took it and algebra 2)

statistics

english (already took it every year, but i can take physcology in literature or journalism this year)

physcology (taking AP)

sociology

health class

a foreign language (second year of spanish, already had 2 years of french, but would rather not take it...is it that important?)

which of those do you DEFINATLY need to take in high school or will be taking in college? i am just wondering becuase i think i need to change some classes i am taking for this senior year (pre-calc and earth science when i should be taking statistics and physics?) any help thanks!

Answer 1

This is unofficial, just my opinion.  Biology, chemistry, algebra for sure, but you  say you already have those, psychology, sociology next and physics last.  Foreign language is not important.

Answer 2

If it's between stats and calculus, I'd say go for the calculus. You need it for a "real" stats course, anyway (as well as for a "real" physics course.) Ditto for physics over earth science.

In many parts of the U.S., a working knowledge of Spanish would be a real plus for a nurse.

You can figure oln taking more chemistry, physics, math, and biology once you get to college.
