   BCIT requirements are based on what you mentioned above and you need a total of 18 university credits: - ENGL 1177 - Academic Writing or equivalent* (3.0 credits) - BHSC 1200 - Human Anatomy and Physiology or equivalent*, completed within t...

   Hello, I find the new curriculum to be very good. But given I have no experience in the old curriculum, my answer is biased. We are currently being taught using a concept based approach, and I find this to be pretty good because as a nurse, we aren’t...

   Yeah, I have friends in my cohort that are taking both LIBS classes right now since the BSN program has been postponed till September. Best to just get it out of the way cause there is a decent amount of readings for LIBS and that with the nursing kn...

   You can take them any time. I took them during my application process and completed it before they started selecting students. If you complete it before the application, you can let the nursing program advisor know that you completed both LIBS classe...

   Yeah, I have some friends in my cohort that had to repeat it. I was lucky that I passed first try and am glad I don’t have to take it again LOL. Any who, if you need tips for term 1, hit me up, I’ll be glad to share ?

   And yeah, it’s a smart thing to take both LIBS before you actually need to take them. Especially for 7002/7021 because ethics can be challenging for some people, I know I found it tough even though I thought I understood the material, and allows an i...

   You won’t be paying for the LIBS classes a second time. If you don’t self register for LIBS in term 1 and term 5, you don’t go into term 3 or term 6. 7001 is a requirement for term 3 and 7002/7021 is a requirement for term 6. They aren’t included in ...

   Wrong, whoever told you that does not know what they’re talking about. The tuition you pay every term is toward nursing courses and nursing courses alone. Although the two LIBS courses are part of the nursing program, they are separate from the tuiti...

   Hello, for course load, it’s not bad, just focus on learning objectives for modules. That is all you will be tested on. Knowledge exams aren’t cumulative but understanding the concepts translates over between modules. For communication, you can read,...

    For ethics, yeah it’s tough, but if your answers are consistent then you should be fine. And what I mean by consistent is that you do something for one person, you have to do it for everyone else, so that should help you in your decision making proce...

    Haha np, just helping out where I can. For the questionnaire I would assume you’re talking about, I believe it’s marked based on whether or not you show aspects of what a competent nurse would do. For example, say you had a question asking you to tal...

    Yes, the cohort of 64 students will be separated in half and you will be given a course schedule. You do not need to register for anything aside from the libs classes. The cohort students will mix around though.

    wizkid1 replied to Academiclifer's topic in CA Programs

    Yep, the acceptance starts being given during June and onwards to October depending on how many people applied and met the requirements. But if you’re dead on going to BCIT, getting the libs courses out of the way would be the smart route to go consi...

    wizkid1 replied to Academiclifer's topic in CA Programs

    I would take them as early as possible, because when you are applying, you can tell them and let them note that you are currently taking those courses because they can check when scoring your application. Taking both libs classes will give you extra ...

    No, I completed them both at the same time online. One of them is critical reading and writing, the other one touches base on ethics (7002 is ethics and 7021 is health ethics; either is fine)
