1. Commuting to Nursing School?

   rpnstudent199 replied to ihurdle1920's topic in General Students

   I commute around 2 hours in the morning, and 2.5-3 hours on the way home. I use public transit so it takes a lot longer than it should. I'm managing but I really want to try transferring second semester because it just cuts out too much study (and sl...

2. McMaster vs Sheridan

   rpnstudent199 replied to aw5000's topic in CA Programs

   I haven't attended either school so take this with a grain of salt, but Mohawk has a much better reputation than Sheridan in employers eyes. I've heard two practicing nurses say Sheridan does not have the best reputation and that Mohawk is one of the...

3. Wanting to be a nurse

   rpnstudent199 replied to lilnursing's topic in CA Programs

   I dont think highschool students are able to take college courses in Canada, at least not in Ontario. I could be wrong though. I don't know about the requirements for BSN or BScN university programs, but practical nursing generally requires grade 11...

4. Transgender student nurse

   rpnstudent199 replied to teethotamales's topic in Relations

   I find it pretty outrageous that people are blaming the OP and saying they are "looking for abuse" and "using the transgender issue as a scapegoat." This person has clearly been through a lot and regardless of whether you think they are too emotional...

5. High school refresher courses - Pre health

   rpnstudent199 replied to Maxg1983's topic in CA Programs

   Not to mention if you upgrade through ILC or night school you can apply to any university/college you please! Whereas with pre-health, very few universities consider the certificate "university level" so you're limited to colleges

6. High school refresher courses - Pre health

   rpnstudent199 replied to Maxg1983's topic in CA Programs

   I did pre-health at George Brown. I found it pretty difficult, but a lot of others found it pretty easy. I struggle in math so that was a big factor, but I pulled through and by some miracle got an acceptance. Pre-health is good in the sense that it ...

11. Need help making a decision

    rpnstudent199 replied to hlafleur19's topic in CA Programs

    I just finished pre-health at George Brown. Your marks are great so I would say do not take pre-health. It is a huge money grab and it would be awful to pay all that money and chance not doing as well as your highschool marks and not getting in. If p...

12. Seneca College RPN

    rpnstudent199 replied to rpnstudent199's topic in CA Programs

    Exactly! And all of the colleges have to meet the standards of the Ontario Nursing Association so they are all pretty much the same. However, some schools are always going to be looked down upon unfortunately.

    rpnstudent199 replied to rpnstudent199's topic in CA Programs

    I just finished George Brown pre-health so yes I applied there. It is EXTREMELY difficult to get in there. I have friends with 90+ averages who haven't gotten in, and my marks are not the greatest so it's not likely.
