I am going to college soon, this is my last year in high school, & I was looking up classes I have to take if I plan on getting an AA degree in Nursing & It says the math I have to take is "Gordon Rule Math". What is this math? Other degrees require college algebra.
Also if there are any nurses out there Id like to here about your job & if you enjoy it & also can you become a midwife from getting an AA degress in nursing?
Thanks guys & girls. =)

Gordon rule math is linear algebra. The main goals for this course are to learn to utilize major algorithms, and tools in order to work with matrix algebra and its abstraction to linear transformations.

Yes. Not only for the obvious, practical reasons such as calculating dosages of medications and drip flow rates on IVs, but also just to get into nursing school, you need chemistry, which requires the ability to work algebraic equasions and how to balance them. If you're looking into nursing you will want to ask your college of choice exactly what their math requirements are. Some want not only college level algebra but also statistics.

Gordon Rule math depends on the state where you are going to college. In Florida it is "College Algebra" and it's equivalent or higher.
Go to the university's website and search "Gordon Rule Math".

Agreed with the above...even though I have never hear it called Gordon Rule Math.
I am in Nursing school right now, and I believe that midwifery is now a Master's Degree level certification. You would have to check with your local health department or board of nursing, though.
