Hi Everyone, I was wondering if anyone has taken either BIO 153 or 155 to get into the nursing program at UBC (University of British Columbia). The two courses seem to be the exact same lecture....
Wow... I didn't think that this thread would come alive again. I haven't posted on this forum in such a long time. I'm really sorry to hear about your last midterm exam. Whether or not you should...
Hey Gemini! (I'm a Gemini too!) I took BIO 153 last year (if I remember correctly, that's the one with the lab?). I found that for his exams, I have to pretty much study everything. I mostly focus on...
Hi everyone, I saw a 3M Littmann Classic II SE Stethoscope Pink Breast Cancer edition for sale for approx. $80 CAD ($63USD). I am planning on applying to nursing school this coming summer. So with...
I know that biology is like the core of all medical field related jobs. However, I was just curious. Do any nurses find biology hard/difficult? What do you find difficult? How do you overcome it? How...
Hi everyone, As the summer creeps closer, the sooner I will begin my A&P pre-requisites for nursing school. I am beginning to think more and more about it and am getting somewhat intimidated. I...
MMI means "multiple mini interview" which is the interview format that UBC's School of Nursing uses. If you google for MMI interview questions, you may be able to find questions and practice from...
I spoke to the Nursing Undergrad advisor not too long ago (just yesterday, actually). I think the plan for this upcoming September still holds true and that they are only going to admit 90 people...
No... I didn't but I'm planning to apply this summer. Hoping to get in for January 2010! What was your GPA (if you don't mind me asking)? Did you complete a bachelor's before applying?
Hey coastliving, I was just wondering, are they asking you to write an essay and then send it in? Or are you expected to write it at the group meeting/interview?
Thanks to all who replied! I was just wondering, if a stethoscope has been left unused for a couple years or more, does the plastic tubing harden and crack when you do use
Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone knew of any accelerated nursing programs available in the Vancouver Lower Mainland area. I will be finishing up my Computer Science degree in 2010 and want to...
Hi Valhalla_Pure, How are you liking the BCIT Nursing program? I heard it's extremely intense, because I have a couple of friends to attend there. Where do you find out about Nursing schools and their...
Why do you say that it's a good school if you're not considering in doing a master's degree? Is it not possibly to get admitted into schools that offer the MSN if we do BSN's from
Um, no... I'm not a nursing student. But I'd like to be! I was concerned because I never really considered myself to be good with biology. And I haven't really studied biology since grade 11. I'm just...
I'm not a nurse or anything, but I hope to be one! Scrubs is one of my favorite shows! And it just happens that Sacred Heart was the name of my elementary school! I found that to be quite a nice...
Hey Simplicity Girl, I don't think I can apply this year since I do not have the pre-requisite yet. I spoke to the advisor and she said that even if I do the pre-requisite during the summer, I won't...
Hey Smiles! Thanks for letting me know. Could you give me a little bit more detail about what the lab components consists of? Is it similar to high school biology labs where you're asked to dissect...
Hey Amber, I spoke to the nursing advisor, and she mentioned that the GPA will only be calculated on the last 30 credits. You should go see an advisor before applying as it will probably give you a...
