Hullo,
I am a reformed lawyer seeking to make a career change. My goal is (was?) toward the MSW as the fastest way to get licensed for psychotherapy practice. Obviously I have had to do prerequisite coursework before I meet the standards for consideration.
The psychology courses were no problem. Even statistics, fear of which pushed me from psychology to law in the first place.
Now I am absolutely Freaking Out over anatomy and physiology, the last course I need to take before applying to the social work program. I have never taken a biology course before, not even in high school. I am very squeamish and we have to dissect things. I do words and music - this is as far as one can get from either.
Any advice or words of wisdom? I am very, very close to throwing in the towel, even though the first incremental goal is in sight.
