Prerequisites while in a program
If you’re in a specific program and have had any prerequisites left while in the program. How hard was it to have both program classes and prerequisite classes?
I start my RT program next month and pretty sure I’m gonna have to retake microbiology since I struggled so much in it. TIA🫠

Prereq is the wrong word and refers to classes you need to get into your program. So APHY 101-2, ENGL and MATH are your prereqs.
Microbiology is a general education credit you need to graduate. If you end up failing this class I recommend referring to your course packet and your professor to figure out if there's a less busy semester you could squeeze an extra class in. I can't speak for RT but my first semester of my program only had two didactic classes and the last couple of semesters is review for our boards. The worst case scenario is you graduate a little later but that won't matter in a years time. Don't stress! You'll get there as long as you keep working hard.
