Core courses usually include, but are not limited to, English composition, developmental or life-span psychology and basic sociology. Although less common, some nursing schools may require you to pass a course in ethics, religion, logic or philosophy.
What kind of math courses are usually required for nursing? I'm not very good with math and I was curious as to how much math I would encounter and what type of math I would encounter on my journey to becoming a nurse. Thanks a lot!! 7 Comments. Topic Closed.
