Nursing info from NCC students

Can someone please inform me about ncc's nursing program. I'm currently a senior and I want to become a Nurse(rn). I was planning on doing 2 years at NCC and then transferring to another school for another 2 years. I wanted to know what classes I would be expected to take in NCC once I got there.(assuming I pass the placement tests) How many classes would I be able to take a semester because I know to finish nursing you have to take 5 each semester, but I don't want to be overwhelmed and start failing classes because I can't take all the work. Also, what classes do you need to take before you get into the nursing program? I'm a little confused on how that goes. I'm thinking of starting off with 4 classes to see how that goes. What do you suggest? Any advice you have? I went on ncc's website and I looked for the schedule for a nursing degree and it showed me all the classes you have to take to get that degree, for example statistics, anatomy & physiology, English, a bunch of nursing classes and etc. Is that how my schedule is going to be once I'm in Nassau? sorry I'm asking so much, but if anyone could tell me that'd be great.
