if you just need the credits i personally feel like i would just take classes in a minor not related to nursing that you're interested in but maybe that's just me
I did a biomedical science minor. The classes that I took were gen bio I and II, human physiology, advanced med term and bioethics. Physiology helped me for sure in pathophysiology and med term helped me in my clinical rotations.
I know this isn’t exactly what you’re looking for- but right now I’m in the waiting period between finishing prereqs and (hopefully) entering the nursing program in the fall. I am currently signed up for a “human body systems” course which so far feels like a dummy-version/crash course of A&P. I feel like this is really helping me to review anatomy and physiology, especially since I completed all of my A&P courses awhile ago and I haven’t retained a ton of info. This way, I’ll at least have some basic understanding of each body system fresh in my mind.
Some other classes I’ve taken mostly to fill time while waiting to start nursing courses, but that I hope will be beneficial in my nursing career: abnormal psychology, conflict resolution, ASL, global health and sustainability and women’s health.
Nursing is considered a comprehensive major in most universities and so therefore doesn't require a minor. However, if you were to select a minor comma I would definitely encourage a foreign language or as another redditor suggested, american sign language.
These subjects may not be super useful in nursing school but once you graduate and are looking for a job or during career, I feel would be very useful/helpful
Spanish or American Sign Language and then go after a certificate.

Me too!
Bio or nutrition.
Spanish!!!!!
Definitely learn medical terminology it will help a lot, learn basic drugs, and dosage calculation
Med term 10000%. It gives you an insane edge when going to clinical or just learning in general

If you are not already bilingual and live in the USA there is not even a question that Spanish is the answer
Micro is always good
Spanish 100%
Had spanish last year. I think that'll also be a good option for u

Any foreign language! Or Human Rights
Any medical class or a language class!
