Question by Bonnie: What is the avg amount of credit hours taken in college? How many sciences is average per sem for nursing?

I'm starting college in the fall and eventually nursing school. The councilors I have met with have highly recommended the amount and order I should take my sciences. (1 science a sem since it is such a competitive field) Is that enough?

A credit hour simply means how many hours per week a course meets. Most college classes are 3 or 4 credits, but 1, 2, 5, and more credits are certainly common enough.
