Hello everyone,

I am taking my prerequisite class (Emergency Response) this fall. I was curious if it would be worth it to take a human anatomy class as well. Also, if you took any other classes that helped you prepare of your training class, feel free to list them.

Thank you!

Yes, absolutely take an Anatomy class, along with physiology. Other classes that would have benefit: College Algebra, English/Comp, Chemistry, and Micro. Psychology and sociology wouldn't be terrible ideas either.

Like others have said, Anatomy and Physiology would be a great thing to take. It's the backbone of anything/everything medical. Everything you do and learn will make a lot more sense. It will make the profession a lot more fun and interesting.
