Mohawk RPN January 2015?

World Canada CA Programs

Published

Hi!

i applied for January intake of Mohawk RPN program. I'm waiting to hear from admissions.

I was told I would hear back by the end of august but that is not the case. So I'm wondering when you guys heard back from there and when I can expect to hear back?

In high school I took uni courses so I added 10% for college. I have an 87.6% average.

For my hoae I got:

aa 56/75 84.46 normalized

ns 45/60 67.87

rc 30/35 45.25

sp 38/45 57.31

via 69/90 104.71

im just wondering what grades they look for competitively and I don't really know how to read my hoae results. thanks for your help in advance!

Any help is appreciated!!!

That would make more sense! Thanks! Guess we have to keep an eye out for the schedule.

I bought some nursing books from this site. It's canadian and they sell new and used books.

Yes, you can buy the online textbook bundle at the bookstore. It also includes some helpful online modules for anatomy and physiology.

With digital textbooks, do you need an e-reader or tablet? What's the format, is it a cd-rom/dvd or some kind of download?

The books are downloadable. It's simple and fast. They don't take up much memory at all. They can be put on your desktop, laptop, cell, tablet, etc. If you don't want to download them onto your phone for example, they are also viewable online.

Question - because clinicals start the 5th week, does that mean that the first 4 weeks we have 2 days off?

Nope. You will be expected to be in lab for the first 4 weeks to learn skills you can apply to your first clinical.

sounds good to me!

Have you guys completed all the clinical requirements? Any questions?

I did my OSCE yesterday so now I can breathe again! haha

All I have left is my mask fit! The only frustrating thing for me is one of my Certificates that I need printed from elearn will not allow me to enter my name and the date on it is from 2011. Seems more like a computer glitch than anything.

How did your OSCE go? What is involved?

Also in terms of books - should I purchase before school starts or will there be enough to go around if I go in within the first couple days?

Also what did you do during orientation?

Oh no.. do you have to do both CPR and First Aid? I did my CPR and I just noticed it also says standard first aid...but the only other thing they have with Continuing Education is a CPR AND First Aid course for a whole weekend, the one happening before everything is due being cancelled.

I would contact pre-placement services regarding the incorrect date on your certificate. That's odd.

My OSCE went well. It's a clinical examination that you must pass to continue to second semester. It includes assessments (respiratory, musculoskeletal, abdominal), communication, infection control, transfers and positioning, etc.

If you have the means to acquire the books before school starts I would recommend doing so. It's not unusual for them to run out of books (although they do eventually restock - the question is when). Plus it's pretty busy at the store once school starts. Everything you need is at the Health Sciences Bookstore (lowest level of McMaster Hospital). Don't forget to pick up your nursing badges (they have them behind the counter).

Orientation - long, boring, somewhat overwhelming. You will find out what day your clinical is and will sit with your clinical instructor and students in your group. They basically just go over everything and tell you the program is fast and furious.
