   @futurenurse612 Are there any required text books that we need to have? Or are they all "suggested"?

   @connor67 No problem. I think I read/heard somewhere that you get two other rotations(?) - I know there is one for sure. So we get to experience at least two other 'types' of nursing. I think the most type of variety would be at the UHN locations...

   @connor67 I actually asked the lady who interviewed me this - unfortunately, the answer is no. She mentioned that because it is a specialized program, there is no "variety" of clinical rotations. If your "home base" is Sick Kids then you are mostly...

   Hey @futurenurse612 I was just reading the info package they sent us. Do you happen to recall when the document submission deadline is (there is no date in the package)?

   @futurenurse612 I believe you mentioned in a previous post that the first 3 weeks "classes" are typically 9-5; and then you are in placement. What are the hours of placement typically like? Do you start at 7am or earlier?

   It'll also probably say in your package that you get in the mail. I remember when I applied to my undergrad. It was conditional, pending I kept my average above 80% - so it'll probably outline it in there.

   I love ASICS! They have a huge outlet at Vaughan Mills mall - if anyone is in the GTA. You can get some really nice shoes for a good price. I always got my scrubs from Marks (good price, you can return them - up to a year, even if you've worn them! ...

   I'm so sorry to bug you with more questions! If you get placed with TPH - do you know, by chance, if it is more of a structured schedule or do you also get to experience 12 hour shifts? I'm hoping to get into TPH, but I would also like to have the e...

    @futurenurse612 When you got your acceptance letter in the mail - is that when they told you about your placement (Sick Kids, PH, UHN)? How far in advance did you learn about your "schedule" for the 9 weeks of placement - since I know it follows a ...

    Hey everyone, just caught up with all the comments. I had my interview on March 12th as well. I think it went OK? lol I was just wondering, if you are placed in a public health setting - are you most likely to be in Mississauga, North York, etc? D...
