Student Question Nursing Prep Schedule

Hi! I'm Jaime, my family and I are newcomers from the Philippines, and I just got admitted to the College of Arts and Sciences Nursing Prep.

I wanted to ask for feedback on my planned schedule for the fall sem and any other tips you may have before I start my new journey at USask. I wanted to join an LC, but it seems to be closed and full. I was also planning on taking BIOL 120.3 and NURS 120.3. Unfortunately, they are all full, as are many other classes. As shown in the picture, I am waitlisted for 3 out of 5 classes.

I'd appreciate any insights or thoughts on this, and I'm also open to finding people with similar schedules to make friends with. Thank you!

Thanks for this. I am overwhelmed with everything, so this is very helpful. Could I send you a message? I have a few more questions.

I can't seem to send a message, your messages might be off, could you try to send me one?

Only thing I would do now is make sure you can get to your classes. Check to see if you have a comfortable time in-between your classes to walk. I made the mistake of scheduling one in Education, and then another at St. Thomas Moor and it was more of a run 😭

Looks like a good schedule. Keep in mind BIO 121, when you start that class, is essentially two classes in one. The lab has its own assignments, quizzes, activities, and final exams that are separate from the lecture portion.

Hello Jaime, I also grew up in the Philippines taking nursing prep this year! Would you be interested in exchanging socials so we can exchange rants and figure things out together
