    You have a very good point there...but I am still not sure how to bring it up to them. Do I just go "I know somebody who was denied an interview this year, but received an admission letter, and i was...

    Yah, I was quite baffled she got the acceptance letter at all. To me, I just found it to be rather unfair to the rest of us. I'm not saying this because I'm bitter that she got an acceptance with no...

    Ah that makes sense. But she was rejected and not wait listed, so that just seem odd to me that's all. As well when I visited UBC today, they said they do not retain applicant information from past...

    Hmm, I just heard some pretty strange rumour, and I'm not sure how much to trust it. I really hope its a mistake, because if it isn't, I'm going to feel cheated. This girl I know applied last year,...

    yeah, I actually went to UBC Hospital to ask them the same thing just now. My place on the wait list isn't high, so I'm a bit worried. She said that last year ~20 people from the waitlist got in, and...

    hi lazz1, thanks for the positive vibe. Do you know how many people are on the wait list, and by good chance, how good of a chance is that? Because I am wondering if I should apply for some other...

    To prepare for the interview, I'm going to read as much as I can about nursing...the code of ethics, the nurses' responsibilities..stuff like that. As for accommodation, maybe you can find a homestay...
